Out with the Asian Elephants at ARK
All the love and attention lavished on Maggie in recent weeks has diverted the limelight a bit from the dear Asian girls, and we know you're eager for news of them, too!
Maggie is doing beautifully, and her daily visits with her companions are growing longer and progressively less eventful every time. You can watch that process unfold on our webcam at approximately 2:00 pm Pacific time.
In this video update we spent the morning with Wanda, Minnie, Rebecca and Annie in the Asian Habitat at ARK. It was a gorgeous warm day in Calaveras County, and Wanda joined the other girls at the top of "Annie's hill" for a few snacks and a chat. We thought we'd let Wanda speak for herself. Enjoy!

About Pat Derby and PAWS
- PAWScaster
- Galt, California, United States
- Pat Derby’s advocacy for animals developed more than 35 years ago when she began working with captive wildlife in movies and television commercials. While working on television series such as Gunsmoke, Lassie, Daktari, and Flipper, she witnessed the neglect and abuse prevalent in animal training. Determined to initiate better standards of care and handling for performing animals, Pat chronicled her adventures in a Book-of-the-Month Club autobiography, The Lady and Her Tiger. The first exposé of the treatment of performing animals, The Lady and Her Tiger won an American Library Association Award in 1976. Since 1984, The Performing Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) has been at the forefront of efforts to rescue and provide appropriate, humane sanctuary for animals who have been the victims of the exotic and performing animal trades. PAWS investigates reports of abused performing and exotic animals, documents cruelty and assists in investigations and prosecutions by regulatory agencies to alleviate the suffering of captive wildlife.
