Oklahoma City Zoo is to blame.

On January 30, beloved Asian elephant Chai was found dead, alone and laying outside in the cold elephant yard at Oklahoma City Zoo. The situation surrounding her death is suspicious, and marks the second premature elephant death at the zoo in recent months. News of Chai’s death is heartbreaking for those who loved her, and especially for her many loyal friends who fought so hard for her freedom.

Tragically, Chai almost made it, along with her longtime companion Bamboo, to a California sanctuary when their previous zoo closed its elephant exhibit. However, the relentless, self-serving zoo industry denied them both their freedom, and sentenced them to an even worse situation: an even more cramped exhibit, and a colder climate, at Oklahoma City Zoo.

We need you to take urgent action for elephants still stuck at the disgraceful Oklahoma City Zoo, which is why we have spotlighted this zoo ahead of the #2 Worst Zoo for Elephants.
