Baby Zuri at the Hogle Zoo in Salt Lake City

When I was a baby my mommy took me to the Hogle Zoo and I fell in love with Zuri. Isn't she cute? She is an African elephant and this is her mommy Christine. Christine likes her tusks short so she scrapes them on things to break them and file them like finger nails.

WHY

This is Sara's Mom. I was teaching Sara's Sunday School class and asked the children what they were afraid of, expecting to hear from my daughter something like, "the dark", "the boogieman", instead she looks at me and said, "I am afraid that when I am a grown up it will be too late to save the elephants from the poachers, and no one will want to go to Africa with me." I did not know what to say to my sweet baby at first, but I knew it had to be good. So I asked her who ever said a 6 year old couldn't save the elephants right now, she didn't have to wait to be a grown up. We thought of a few things we could do and came up with a Blog where people can donate to save endangered animals. Because she went on to inform me that when she is done saving the elephants there are lots more animals that need her help.
