From: CMU reports:
Pink has written an open letter to illusionists Siegfried & Roy asking them to let their elephant, Gildah, leave its pen at the Las Vegas' Mirage Hotel and Casino and live the rest of its life at a wildlife sanctuary.
The singer, supported by People For The Ethical Treatment Of Animals, argue Gildah's case has become particularly acute since the illusionists' show was cancelled after Roy Horn was attacked by a tiger during his act back in October.
In the letter Pink writes: "Gildah is being screwed out of an elephant's most basic need, the companionship of other elephants. Today we know that elephants are intelligent, social animals who form complex relationships... Those relationships mean even more for captive elephants who have already suffered the loss of family, freedom and habitat and have nothing left. In a sanctuary, Gildah could forage through hundreds of acres of lush vegetation, play in the pond and at least have some life as nature intended. ... Sure beats life in a tiny tourist trap."
