Safari Park Sends Young Male Elephants Abroad

RAMAT GAN, ISRAEL - FEBRUARY 1: In this handout file photo, issued December 27 , 2009 baby African elephant Bakbuki is bottle-fed as his mother stands by on February 1, 2006 at the Ramat Gan Safari Park in central Israel. Bakbuki, now four-and-a-half years old, is one of two young males who are being sent to a zoo in Hungary to join a solitary elephant there. The Safari Park said they need to transfer the two males at this time as they are rapidly approaching sexual maturity, and the park is trying to make sure their elephants do not mate within the family herd.
