Three African elephants who have lived at Roger Williams Park Zoo since 1990, are going to be relocated next year.
They will go to The Elephant Sanctuary in Hohenwald, Tennessee.
According to zoo officials, the decision to move Alice, Ginny and Kate is to avoid a situation where one elephant could eventually be left without companionship.
They said they are confident the Tennessee factify offers the best environment and care needed as the elephants age.
