Dances with Elephants - R.I.P. Mardos. 12/27/2006
I received word this morning that Mardos, the young elephant we were trying to help, was put down yesterday morning at 9 a.m.

I guess we tried, but we were hoping against hope. The little guy is now at rest, and won’t have to suffer any more. I really wish we had managed to get him upright, and walking, and living. But it wasn’t to be.
I still remember going to see him, and he would wrap his trunk around my hand, and pull me down to sit next to him. I remember his big eyes, full of trust, and intelligence, looking at me, as if he was asking for help.
Goodbye Mardos. I promise to continue helping your other elephant brothers and sisters.

I’m so sorry
. I hope Mardos comes back to a better life.
May he rest in eternal peace. Goodbye Mados, sleep well little one.
(siiighhh) You tried your best Snarky. There is stil so much to learn, and hopefully things will work out right before (God forbid) another elephant goes thru the same thing.
ya, read that in the papers today. The first thing I thot of was you. in this case, i agree with euthanasia.
All elephants too go heaven… sob sob sob!
You have my sympathy, Snark. I’m glad you’re going to keep working with the others.
Ride well,
