URGENT CALL FOR HELP! โ€“ Keenesburg, CO
We need YOU!

The Sanctuary is in dire need of an attorney that can help protect the animals from developers who are blatantly violating the terms of a contract they have with our organization. 10 years ago two women Sherry Boris Wigaardand Smith VeLois Smith decided to apply for a PUD Subdivision to be built next door to our Sanctuary, but thankfully, Weld County made them secure a contract with us to help protect the animals.

The contract had terms that would help mitigate the chances of people moving into this new subdivision and then forcing the Sanctuary to move or shut down. The developers previously lived here in Colorado but moved to Florida many years ago, which resulted with the development coming to a halt.

However, these ladies decided they now want to make money from the development and are now moving forward with the subdivision construction and sale of homes. HOWEVER, THEY HAVE CEASED ADHEREING TO THE CONDITIONS OF OUR CONTRACT! They have been ghosting the Sanctuary and ignoring all of our efforts to contact and work with them - and are moving ahead at a high rate of speed. By not following the stipulations of this very important contract, all of the animals at our Keenesburg facility are at risk!

If you or anyone you know is a practicing attorney and can help us stop the progress of this development and force these two women to adhere to the very import contract conditions THEY AGREED TO, we would greatly appreciate you and/or them getting in touch with us.

Time is of the essence, as they are attempting to fill the subdivision right now! Call the Sanctuary at 303-536-0118 or email us at [email protected].

Great news!

! Washington state has recently passed a bill prohibiting the use of animals such as bears, wild cats, nonhuman primates, and elephants in traveling acts. This is a terrific step towards ending these cruel forms of entertainment and also protects the public from dangerous wild animal encounters.

In support of the bill, FOUR PAWS USA's Melanie Lary says, "Wild animals have complex emotional, behavioral, and physical needs that cannot be satisfied by traveling shows."

And with many of the animals in our care experiencing exploitation under the guise of entertainment, such as lionesses Illiana and Tomoyo who were recently rescued from a French circus after having lived in cramped quarters and poor keeping conditions their whole lives, we are pleased to see legislation like this that seeks to reduce this unnecessary animal cruelty.

But, there is still room to grow! Currently, New York legislators are eyeing a similar bill that would prohibit bears, wild cats, nonhuman primates, kangaroos, and wallabies in traveling shows... and we need your help to ensure that more animals across the country remain safe from exploitation. NY Residents: call your Assemblymembers today and ask them to support bill A.5850!

Please sign and share to help the elephants!

Note the sharp metal-tipped bullhook or "ankus" in trainer Bill Swain's hand here.

We need 800 signatures in the next few hours to STOP the use of elephants Page, Jeanie, and Krissy for circus-like shows at the 2025 Colorado Renaissance Festival.

SIGN NOW:

"Trunks and Humps," which owns Page, Jeanie, and Krissy, is far from being an educational organization. It is a for-profit business that capitalizes off elephant rides and circus performances. All three of these beautiful, majestic, intelligent, social elephants were caught from their family herds in Africa.
