Cha Cha Cha

It was blast-shooting photos of Cha-Cha, an Asian elephant at the San Diego Zoo, one of four brought in from the San Diego Wild Animal Park as part of a program to blend multiple herds. You’d think blending herds would be an easy process but it’s not. There are more steps to it than Dancing with the Stars. Everything is planned and specific. After all, we’re talking about elephants, a smart group of critters. Remember how it was when from time-to time, you moved to different places and had to get to know, and get a along with your new neighbors. It’s the same with elephants. Now at her new home, Cha-Cha spends a lot of her days hanging out with her newfound friend Sumithi, whom has lived at the zoo almost all of her life. Cha-Cha Cha. More photos.
