Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part III, Line 3

“During the fall of 2014, the two elephants cared for by the organization were moved to an animal sanctuary. This was due to the death of the curator, whom was responsible for the elephants' care. The organization believed that it was best to transfer the elephants to the sanctuary to ensure their best care. The organization is in the process of termination.”
