Mila The Elephant Meets Another Elephant For The First Time In 37 Years

Mila, a 41-year-old African elephant, has spent the majority of her life as a circus performer in New Zealand and hasn’t seen another elephant in more than three decades. Circus life took a toll on Mila, and in 2012 she accidentally killed her keeper, Dr. Helen Schofield, who had a dream of seeing her reunite with other elephants. Mila recently arrived to San Diego Zoo’s Elephant Odyssey complex where, after going 37 years without seeing another elephant, she was introduced to Mary, a 50-year-old Asian elephant.
