Charismatic MEGA-fauna

What's more MEGA than an Asian Elephant? What could be more charismatic than a pygmy version of the aforementioned Asian Elephant who gently lifts a banana from your hand and gracefully lies down for her bath to let you scrub her back? And by "you" I mean me. That's right, Naturalists went behind the scenes at the zoo today at the elephant exhibit and got to feed, caress, and bathe Chendra, a female Asian Elephant from Borneo!

Chendra let all the Naturalists scrub her down, then we fed her bananas!
