Elephant Sandro Thrives at Global Sanctuary for Elephants, Demonstrating Adaptation and Care
Sandro, an elephant resident at the Global Sanctuary for Elephants, is actively exploring his habitat and adapting to his new environment. Caretakers report that Sandro is spending his time deep within the sanctuary, discovering favorite spots with tall grass and relaxing among the trees. While his explorations sometimes make him less immediately visible, his movements are often audible or indicated by moving trees. The care team occasionally needs to search for him, which is seen as a positive sign of his engagement with the expansive habitat. Sandro is described as a 'fast gentleman' when he decides to move, requiring quick action from his caretakers to keep pace. He typically returns closer to the fence around meal times, and his feeding schedule is varied to maintain his interest. Scott, a caretaker, recently caught Sandro in a calmer mood while delivering his lunch, noting areas of Sandro's body that need to build muscle, with expectations for continued improvement in his health and strength.
