For Elephant Day

Today is World Elephant Day so what better way to celebrate it Animal Kingdom style then with a blast from the past. This picture was taken in 1998, a few short months after the opening of the park.

As I am sure you know, the stars of the safari, the main attraction of the park, were elephants, Little Red and Big Red, with a story focused on the plight of poaching. While they might not have been real, these two were and so unfortunately, is the plight.
