To stay safe, keepers work with our Asian elephants in a protected contact setting—that is, there is always a physical barrier, such as fencing or steel mesh, between an animal and a person. . . . 🐾💉 During training sessions, keepers use targets, hand signals and verbal cues to ask an elephant to voluntarily present a body part.

Before that can happen, the elephants must go through training to become comfortable with the crate. Hear from zoo staff on what it takes to get an elephant roadtrip ready!
