Although there is clear evidence of Pocha & Guillermina introducing themselves to bushes throughout yard 3, today was the most we have seen them explore and graze during the day. #sanctuaryheals

"Is she OK?? How does she hold her breath for so long?" You might ask. Elephants only breathe about 6 times per minute! Maia will keep relaxing like this for up to a couple of hours. Watch how she comes up for air! #ThrowbackThursday #wildlife #elephants #nonprofit

Rana was already at the trough taking a bath, and Ramba decided to join --> *Ramba is the petite elephant on the left, #RanaBug is on the right. And yes, Rana really is that much taller than Ramba. #ElephantSanctuaryBrazil #SundayFunday #elephants
