I'm surprised that the elephants are not chained to the pole in their enclosure. That way they could go around and around and perhaps become a mini-generator and therefore create an electrical current...haha.
the actual enclosure is on the other side of the circular pit. Its still very small but obviously much larger than the pit. I don't know how often or for how long the elephants are allowed out into the enclosure proper. Possibly its only for rides. Who knows.
