Locate an Elephant

Moja is a female African elephant born in captivity at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park in 1982. In 1994, she was transferred to the Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium, where she spent twenty years on display and was used in the zoo’s captive elephant breeding program. During that time, she gave birth to two daughters, Victoria and Zuri. Then, in 2014, the zoo sent Moja across the country to Wildlife Safari in Oregon, permanently separating her from them. She remains confined at Wildlife Safari with other elephants who all suffer from the facility’s lack of sufficient space and from being unable to engage in their natural behaviors.
