Description
Episode 13
Guida & Maia (Part 2) - Kat & Scott share their memories of Guida & Maia’s first steps off the transport crates after a safe and smooth journey to the sanctuary. Due to their difficult relationship, Guida & Maia spent their first night in separate stalls in the elephant care center. Yet it seemed that the magic of sanctuary had already enveloped the two elephants, as Kat recalls her and Scott sleeping on hay bales next to the care center and being woken up frequently during the night by loud trumpets & rumbles. With the safety of the elephants always in their focus, Kat shares how they opened up the gates and let both elephants into yard one after only 24 hours. A shift between Guida and Maia had taken place, and Guida astonished everyone by seemingly taking charge. But it will take a few more months for this superficial bonding to turn into a true friendship, leaving behind decades of trauma and aggression.

Who we are: Global Sanctuary for Elephants exists to create vast, safe spaces for captive elephants, where they are able to heal physically and emotionally. There are elephants around the world in need of sanctuary, but too few places exist to be able to care for even a fraction of the elephants. International support is necessary to build sanctuaries for elephants in need of rescue and rehabilitation. Our pilot project is Elephant Sanctuary Brazil, currently home to six female Asian elephants.
