Thanks for your great pictures of the new Oregon Zoo elephant complex, betsy.

Had you seen the old elephant museum at this zoo before it was torn down several years ago to make way for the new elephant exhibit? I'm curious if they replicated some of it in the new exhibit as it looks like they have some extensive interpretive exhibits.

This is cool, it looks very much like a mounted specimen at first glance!

Thanks for the photos Betsy, good to see what this development looks like.

These Look rather Odd at first,as zooboy28 said they look mounted/stuffed but when you enlarge the photo they look really good.

I had not seen the old elephant museum. I only had a couple of hours at the zoo so I didn't get to take as many photos as I would have liked.
