Pupy the elephant heads to a vast Brazilian sanctuary after 30 years in an Argentine zoo

Read Time:33 Second


An unusual convoy is nearing Argentina’s lush border with Brazil, after snaking through traffic-snarled roads for hours. Inside a specialized iron crate strapped to a truck and flanked by vans full of caretakers and veterinarians is an African elephant, named Pupy. After spending more than 30 years captive in a Buenos Aires zoo-turned-nature preserve, Pupy is now on long journey from a trendy neighborhood of Argentina’s capital to the Amazon rainforest of Mato Grosso state in Brazil. She is expected to arrive at her new home at Elephant Sanctuary Brazil, the first refuge for elephants in Latin America, later this week.
