Trunks up for elephant gentle yoga! At 58, Suki is the Zoo’s oldest resident. Daily exercise, fresh fruit and veggies, plenty of mental stimulation and TLC keep the senior Asian elephant active and fit for her age. Suki has already lived beyond the median life expectancy of 47 for female Asian elephants in human care. A former circus elephant, Suki came to Point Defiance Zoo in 1996 and has thrived under the attentiveness of her experienced elephant care team, who tend to her daily needs. ❤️🐘
