When the water sprayed on her for the first time, that look on her face was so full of joy and appreciation of life for the first time in 20 years. Imagine 20 years in a locked, barren room. These elephants are finally being cared for, thank you
None of what you wrote is shown in the video. Where did you get that its the first time she was sprayed with water and although they were in a concrete enclosure it didn't look like a locked barren room. Finally, elephants (in fact most animals) don't have the facial musculature to show expressions. It is something that humans evolved in order to better communicate in our social groups. Elephants do communicate in social groups but they do so with subsonic rumbles and sounds that you wouldn't hear. What you are seeing in her face is your imagination.
You could see quite clearly that their former handlers cared for them deeply, but were happy to see them move on to living a more authentic life. Thank you for sharing this beautiful moment with us!
It looks like one of those old zoos that was never modernized, where the animals are basically just on display. It must suck for the caregivers who work there, knowing how much better could be done for them.
I worked at a zoo this past summer that was subpar. It wasn't as bad as the one in this video but it certainly isn't good. All the keepers there cared a lot for the animals and did their best to make the animals comfortable, but unfortunately, the keepers themselves are powerless. Ownership is at fault for the poor quality of habitat. The keepers can only do their best and hope ownership will listen to reason.
@@et3182 That's a good reason for doing away with displaying creatures in captivity! Just like rodeos, a circus, using and HUNTING ANIMALS for sport such as racing, riding them, making them fight for betting purposes etc., you get the picture. There's a good counter argument for ever keeping animals enclosed and FORCING them to do what is not natural from them.
It is literally emotional torture to confine these intelligent and emotional animals to such small spaces. They are meant to roam many miles daily. Thank you for rescuing them from that concrete prison!
Elephants never forget that you saved them and offered them a beautiful life. The rewards are priceless. I want to thank you for helping these beautiful creatures 💖.

Oh my, for those of us who care deeply about the lives of elephants, this event is huge, and hugely moving. And for those who may just now be learning about the lives of elephants, welcome. I for one have had my life changed by these beings. Their powers of love and intelligence are larger than life, just as they are to the naked eye. Respect and gratitude to all involved in this rescue.
Well said. It’s heartbreaking and joyful all at the same time. I’m just so happy for them to experience freedom! And a big to the people of Argentina for recognizing that these and all- animals deserve a better future. ❤
Such gentle pies.....we enclosed them but there's not a single streak of anger in them..... I pray they will be happy for the rest of their lives now that they are at the sanctuary.
This, unfortunately/fortunately, reminds me of the story from a couple weeks ago about the two tigers in the train-car for 15yrs. They were finally rescued and relocated to a beautiful sanctuary. It gave me the same feelings all over again. Bless the people that do this magnificent work.❤️🌸
They were 4 train tigers. Mafalda and Sandro had two Cubs on the first years in that train ... Messi and Gustavo. All of them are now at a Sanctuary "Lions Rock" in South Africa
@@ZelmiraJulianes I remember seeing that too, and it was also another very emotional and sad situation. However fortunately they settled into their new home and now have much better lives. It astounds me that in this day and age there are still so many magnificent creatures being neglected and abused. Thankfully, there are people who are able to end this unnecessary suffering and bring these animals to wonderful sanctuaries where they can begin a new and free (to a certain extent) lives.
I remember going to The zoo In San Francisco as a young child and the elephants would spend their time rubbing their heads against the cement walls of the zoo And I remember how happy everyone was when the elephants were dropped from The zoo population! In my lifetime kinder and wiser😅i😅
When water was sprayed on her face, it was lit with joy. Priceless moment. I am glad these two elephants will be able to lead better lives. Thank you to the people who helped these two innocent elephants.
I agree with you 100% WeaverDreams. The people who save animals, who provide a good and enriched living space for them if they can’t be returned to the wild, are very rare humans indeed. God bless all of them.
You think these were saved. They were just moved to more of the same. Any "sanctuary" is a teaspoon reliant on tourists coming in close contact. Their chance to get back the life they were due is long gone. You're the dumbed down zombie.
I'm so thankful The Dodo is introducing viewers to Global Sanctuary for Elephants in Brazil. They do incredible work. P&G were rescued 4 months ago - 5 days on the road(!) that supporters (such as myself) around the world followed anxiously but excitedly. Like all the ele gals there, P&G have come SO FAR, learning how to be elephants at last. They look completely different now! GSE has more rescues in the works, including the female African (P&E are Asian) elephant at the same zoo (Ecopark) shown @0:19. Hopefully, this will provide exposure and lead to more funding to help make that a reality.
Yes!!! I’m in Canada and have been looking at these sanctuaries for these huge beautiful creatures. I want to donate and ALSO put some into my will for legacy funding. It’s my way of making up for the cruelty of humanity to so many of these beautiful souls. 🇨🇦💕🥰
I hope someone sends their former handlers and caretakers a video of them in their new home. Let them know they are doing better and a good future. God bless those that rescued them.
Really hard to not cry... I wish I could hug these people, tell them thank you for all the amazing work they do. Thank goodness for the giant hearts of world's rescuers＼(^o^)／
Thank you to Ecoparque Mendoza for transporting these animals to SANCTUARIES! And immeasurable thanks to ALL who had any part in this whole transition--I am deeply grateful to you. 😌💕😌💕😌 These 2 babies 🐘💕🐘 are soooooooo happy now! Just look @ the calm, & the excitedness that is overtaking them! Thank you all again, this really warms my heart! 💛🧡❤💛🧡❤
There they stand. One of the most beautiful creatures on the face of this earth. Thank goodness u all gave them a second chance at a better life. Im sure their new home is and will be a great place for them. 🐘 💘
I love elephants so much. And to see these two finally able to touch the earth and eat foliage like elephants are born to do is very humbling. Thanks to the whole team that worked so hard to get Mom and daughter to a safe sanctuary. Amazing. ❤️🤗🐘🐘
This is great news, Thank you so much! Elephants should live in freedom nobody has the right to hold them as slaves ... I hope for freedom for the rest of elephant around the world ...
A sad desolate life for these animals and the zoo and public for leaving it too late in a concrete pit. Thank you savers. I visited there many years ago and cried at its cruelest environment
My heart pained and tears came rolling down hearing the story of this duo. I'm so glad they have a much better life now. Thanks to all those who were responsible for saving them --you are my heroes. They deserve every bit of their freedom and beautiful life in their natural habitat. Seeing them happy and enjoying simple pleasures is so worth it. Thank you.
I cannot help but cry to see the horrible conditions these loving and innocent creatures were kept under. I live in South Africa and to me to see a majestic animal like an elephant, lion or tiger, any of the big cats in such squaled conditions, are heartbreaking. They now live in paradise! 👏👏👏👏👏💞
I’m glad people got together to do something. We always think something should be done when we see something that’s not right, but to get together with people with the same beliefs and do something about what is wrong is something we all should do. Thank you for making their lives better.
Most zoos have maybe thrice that space. Elephants are animals that instinctively travel hundreds of miles each year. Trapping them anywhere, no matter how big the area is still insanely cruel. Boycott zoos!
They felt what it was like to be free and feel the grass underneath their feet. Love the dirt and mud baths they were giving themselves. Wonderful story! ❤❤❤
This was very emotional. I can feel, maybe not enough, their sense of Freedom, but also I'm very sad for what they had to bear. THANK YOU guys! You're amazing 💗♥️🧡💛💚💙💜
I spent hours watching them when they arrived - waiting for them to leave their crates - when they finally did it was wonderful. To see them now is just incredible - this place is truly heaven on earth for the elephants there - I can't wait for more to find out what a special place it is.
Best thing that could happen to these magnificent creatures. I worked at a Zoo and was a Keeper for Shirley The Urban Elephant, after years in captivity she was released to The Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee. She died recently at the age of 72, her last years were spent roaming freely and was reunited with Jenny an Elephant she once was in a circus with. RIP Shirley and Soloman her main Keeper.
I know Shirley's life. Pocha and Guille are now living all Global Sanctuary of elephants in Brazil. It's president is Scott Blais, who was vice president of the Sanctuary in Tennessee ... imagine all the experience he has ...
I really respect what you do for these beautiful animals. No animal should be caged just for entertainment. They should all be free to roam and live life to the full.
This was AMAZING and gave me goosebumps to see how this poor elephants finally got the courage to venture into a bright new world. Thank you to all the wonderful people who made this happen ♥️
Totally mind-blowing! What these rescuers did for these two unfortunate elephants can hardly be put into words! It demanded an awesome effort, but they DID IT! Little by little, step by step, they managed to help these elephants begin a brand-new chapter of their lives, one in which they get to experience the joys and pleasures of being an elephant! Many thanks for your deep compassion and your commitment to release them from what was an untenable situation! Kudos upon kudos!
I'm so glad they have a little herd there. Socialization and being part of a herd are super important to ellies. They have everything they need now to thrive.
I'm not what might be referred to-respectfully-as a "bleeding heart," but as I watched this incredible event unfold, I was overwhelmed with compassion for what these great animals had endured. And my admiration and respect for those of you responsible for the rescue of these blameless victims of man's inhumanity...I am at a loss to find the words...
So happy for these two elephants to now have a happy life. They deserve it after 20 years in a concrete enclosure. I'm sure they will love their new life.
What a wondrrful story thankyou so much for giving these elephants their freedom so sad they spent most of their lives in that horrible pit you are true Angels Thanyou❤❤❤
This brought tears to my eyes and a lump in my throat. These amazing animals can now look forward to a wonderful life. I am finding it hard to put into words how I feel. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for rescuing and taking care of such special creatures.
I had tears in my eyes almost the whole time. How wonderful that the zoo realized it was best to give them up, and what a happy ending for them to go somewhere open and natural, with others. Thank you for helping them and sharing the moments.
I watched their rescue live in Instagram. We saw them explore from their crate out to the barn, then to yard, then to the small pond and now they are making friends and healing well w all the rest. But definitely a lot of scratch at the back from Scott is the best treat ❤ thankful for all the people who made this happen.
What a wonderful ending to their story I’m so glad they got to experience this together thank you to all the people that had something to do with making their life better
This is really touching, so glad they finally have the life they deserved all along. If it's at all possible, can we get an update on how they're getting along with the other elephants? I hope they make friends.
So wonderful to see them being released in the sanctuary. Long may they live a more natural and comfortable life. They deserve it. Thanks to all that were involved with their transition. You all are awesome!
I am really happy when they took their time to explore and enjoy all the little things that they had never experience before. That was brave of them. I enjoyed this video and literally smiling when the elephants were saved. :)
They are people inside, they have souls. They think, they remember. One female elephant can draw, they love music. It's like they're people inside, because they are. They are sentient creatures just like we are and all other mammals. This is so wonderful.
In Argentina, legally, they are non human persons. So that, a lot of animals were transferred to Sanctuaries ... two of them are these beautiful Pocha & Guille
When the water sprayed on her for the first time, that look on her face was so full of joy and appreciation of life for the first time in 20 years. Imagine 20 years in a locked, barren room. These elephants are finally being cared for, thank you
Where was this? Someone needs to go to jail.
@@soniabelcher4090 Argentina I think..... good luck.
It’s prison and it must stop! These are huge animals that walk miles in a day.
The zoo authorities should be locked up in a concrete cell for 20 years .
None of what you wrote is shown in the video. Where did you get that its the first time she was sprayed with water and although they were in a concrete enclosure it didn't look like a locked barren room. Finally, elephants (in fact most animals) don't have the facial musculature to show expressions. It is something that humans evolved in order to better communicate in our social groups. Elephants do communicate in social groups but they do so with subsonic rumbles and sounds that you wouldn't hear. What you are seeing in her face is your imagination.
This is what all life needs, isn’t it. To be free and happy to live without torture.
You could see quite clearly that their former handlers cared for them deeply, but were happy to see them move on to living a more authentic life. Thank you for sharing this beautiful moment with us!
It looks like one of those old zoos that was never modernized, where the animals are basically just on display. It must suck for the caregivers who work there, knowing how much better could be done for them.

This was absolutely beautiful and so kind of the zoo to allow them to leave to a sanctuary. ❤ gives one hope
Kind? They had become unfashionable and were losing money, you thicko.
@@pigeonlove Dude chill out. There are genuinely good ethical zoos who want to care for animals.
This is great news, Thank you so much! Elephants should live in freedom nobody has the right to hold them as slaves ... I hope for freedom for the rest of elephant around the world ...

My heart is so full seeing them out in the open. May they forget where they have come from and enjoy the rest of their lives under the blue skies.❤

That doesn't look like a Zoo, it looks like a concentration camp nightmare.Thanks for the wonderful rescue.💖
Thats a zoo smh
Most zoos have maybe thrice that space. Elephants are animals that instinctively travel hundreds of miles each year. Trapping them anywhere, no matter how big the area is still insanely cruel. Boycott zoos!
Not if the space is as large as an entire sanctuary!
Zoos need to modernize and give the animals much more space or not be zoos!
Thank you for doing this for these elephants. They can now live a happy life with no more frustration and unhappiness.❤
Blessings to all those who rescued these beautiful creatures! ❤
Thank you for saving these magnificent elephants, so awful how they had to live.
wow this is overwhelming, I cannot stop crying, how dare anybody treat them like that, big thanks for rescuing them.
Look into their big beautiful eyes, they tell the story, Bravo to all who helped in giving them the life they deserve.💓🐘🐘
They felt what it was like to be free and feel the grass underneath their feet. Love the dirt and mud baths they were giving themselves. Wonderful story! ❤❤❤
What a beautiful new life. So happy for the pachy's.
This was very emotional. I can feel, maybe not enough, their sense of Freedom, but also I'm very sad for what they had to bear. THANK YOU guys! You're amazing 💗♥️🧡💛💚💙💜

Brava to the people who let their zoo animals go after so many decades! ❤️ so happy for this mama and baby!
They are people inside, they have souls. They think, they remember. One female elephant can draw, they love music. It's like they're people inside, because they are. They are sentient creatures just like we are and all other mammals. This is so wonderful.
In Argentina, legally, they are non human persons. So that, a lot of animals were transferred to Sanctuaries ... two of them are these beautiful Pocha & Guille
So true Theresa. A spot-on way to describe a beautiful animal. I ❤️ elephants too.
They also mourn their dead
As humans have spirits so do the animals.
People inside... What did the elephants do, eat them? They are animals, yes capable of memories, mourning. They are still animals though.
What a beautiful story Helping these magnificent animals finally have freedom Bless all of you for giving them the life they deserve
