  1. Happy Birthday Miss Elly!!! What a milestone for this very precious Rhino. I adore Elly. She is awesome. It might sound funny to say til you get to know her but this rhino is light on her feet and like a little dancer. She has cute tinkerbell feeties!!!! I love you Elly and will visit you soon. Many many many many many more birthday wishes to come.

    1. @Andie (Lee)- Thank you for you comment. I adore Elly too! She is a special lady and her milestone at 40 should have been recognized! Every year that passes continues to be a milestone. I too love how she prances around. Although she doesnt prance as much in theback and doesn't seem like the Zoo is planning to rotate the two.

    1. @hazel- Thank you for your comment and acknowledging not only her amazing milestone, but the contributions she has made. I hate that the Zoo has used her over the years as a breeding machine and then fails to celebrate her. Awful. I love Miss Elly! Look forward to many more years celebrating her with each visit.
