This weekend I went for the first time to a small zoo not far from home where they had what we believe to be rescued animals.  What really grabbed my attention the most where the elephants. This guys seemed to have come from a circus and one of them actually had a couple of stars branded on his skin. I was struck with the differences between the two animals, while one was still trying to reach for branches to eat outside their enclosure and seemd very active. The oldest one looked sad and tired. The look in his eyes makes me wonder what he must've seen in his long life.
