Campaign Unavailable We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit IDA's Action Center.The short explanation of this alert was: Last year, six-year-old Hansa succumbed to a gruesome elephant virus that primarily afflicts Asian elephants and is fatal in nearly all cases. Yet, full knowing there is a high risk that another elephant will contract and die from the deadly virus, Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle is actively attempting to artificially inseminate Hansa’s mother, Chai. Woodland Park Zoo’s own veterinarian has claimed there is a greater than 1 in 5 chance that another elephant at the Zoo will get the disease. Please Take Action on Friday, June 6th between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. PST to urge the Woodland Park Zoo and Seattle City Council to put the elephants’ welfare first and stop the Zoo’s elephant breeding program.
