By 2011 the elephant habitat will be at least 3.5 acres in size, much larger than the current acre (or even less) that the elephants have.
 
I remmber watching the Elephants interact in this area. While the pool was empty! A young male playng with that ball. He played for ages also atempting intimate relations..

My point, what a simple cost efective enrichment tool for young elephants.
 
Back then this exhibit sucked- now the elephant exhibit at the National Zoo is my favorite Asian elephant exhibit I've seen in America
