Buenas nuevas desde México!

Un tribunal federal otorgó un amparo a la elefanta Ely, contra actos de autoridades del Zoológico de San Juan de Aragón. El tribunal determinó que el amparo era procedente por interés legítimo, destacando la importancia de la protección del medio ambiente y de los animales como seres sintientes. La elefanta africana Ely padece artritis en la pata delantera derecha derivado del esfuerzo al que era sometida en sus espectáculos para trepar a las plataformas y encima de otros elefantes. Además, presenta trastornos psicológicos por siete años de aislamiento además hiperqueratosis, un trastorno caracterizado por engrosamiento de la capa externa de la piel. La sentencia reconoce el derecho de los animales a una vida libre de maltrato y ordena emitir las medidas necesarias para prevenir afectaciones en la salud física o mental de la elefanta. Así como establecer un programa integral de alimentación y cuidados médicos que garanticen que Ely tenga condiciones de vida adecuada. Entre varias medidas importantes ordena se realice un etograma para identificar el repertorio conductual de Ely. Asimismo, se fija inspeccionar el cumplimiento de las medidas para garantizar el bienestar del paquidermo.

Para su cumplimiento, se deberá notificar de dicha resolución a las autoridades responsables, como son la Sedema; al director general de Zoológicos y Conservación de Fauna Silvestre, de la Secretaría del Medio Ambiente, así como al director del Zoológico de San Juan de Aragón.

Estamos muy felices por Ely y agradecemos a los activistas que defendieron fielmente sus derechos, a las organizaciones y por todo su activismo legal , académico y en las calles por Ely, así como a Marcos Mario Czacki Halkin por interponer el amparo.

Durante mucho tiempo creímos que era una película sobre una madre y su hijo “especial”.

Hoy, nos damos cuenta que es una película que refleja la explotación, dolorosa reproducción y el maltrato que sufren los animales en cautiverio.

Ely's feet would be in better shape if she were allowed to retire to sanctuary!

Elephants need soft, natural land under their feet, as well as the ability to walk longer distances. Their are not built for standing on hard, unnatural surfaces!

Ely is certainly ready for freedom, for natural earth, for her to be loved by her kind, in nature, healing and restoring her wild magnificence.

Ely deserves a better life than this… Please help Born Free Foundation bring Ely the lonely elephant of Mexico City to an Elephant Sanctuary.

30/01/2023

New from our NGO and partner, Born Free Foundation].

Born Free is supporting the campaign to help Ely the lonely captive elephant in Mexico.

Ely is a 42-year-old African elephant kept at Zoológico de San Juan de Aragón in Mexico. She arrived at the zoo in 2012 after reportedly being bought from a circus. Since the zoo’s other elephant Maggie was euthanised in 2016, Ely has been kept alone.

Local people and welfare groups, along with elephant experts have expressed concern for Ely’s physical and psychological health and welfare. Video footage appears to show Ely displaying some concerning stereotypic behaviours including swaying and head-bobbing. Such stereotypic behaviours are believed to be a consequence of long-term psychological damage resulting from confinement in impoverished, stressful environments. Ely is believed to also be suffering from a degenerative, chronic bone condition that particularly affects her right foreleg.

November 10, 2021 Ely continues with no shade, no stimulation, no access to food, NO OTHER ELEPHANTS TO INTERACT! She is suffering in captivity! #FreeEly #RetireEly

05/11/32 13:39 Albeit the glow of the water, appearing as safe hydration for ELY it is FILLED WITH CHLORINE that burns her eyes. Chlorine not only burns the eyes damaging vision and causing pain, but disrupts the digestive gut health, hormonal balance and skin health. This is not healthy! Sweet Ely you deserve to Retire to A Real Natural Elephant Sanctuary and be reunited with other elephants so vital to your life. Please sign the petition for Ely's release. Thank you.

#Ely today October, 22. We were with her from 11:25 to 3:20. She foraged a few stems. We didn't see them feed, treat, or visit her during the time of our visit. She presented with periods of stereotypical behaviors. #FreeEly #Justice4Ely #SanctuaryHeals #RetireEly

Ely today, October 17th. Ely demonstrated rocking and stereotypical behaviors starting at 1:28 that lasted, uninterrupted, until we left her at 3:10. We were with her from 11:10 until 3:10, when we were asked to leave, as they were closing. Reported by Diana Valencia

participation of Scott Blais in the international forum "Let's talk about Ely" 2nd. part

Ely spends hours and hours bobbing her head and swaying. This repetitive behavior is called zookosis. This is Ely's brain trying to cope with lack of environmental, mental, social, and physical stimulations; boredom and loneliness. As humans, we truly need to reflect on our experience during COVID. How did we feel when we were stripped or our freedoms, isolated, and lacking in social contact. Now, think of doing this for 9 years, with no end in sight. No hope. We must urge the Mexican Government to do the right thing for Ely and send her to sanctuary. Elephants with similar health profiles are successfully on the way to healing and thriving at sanctuary. If you haven't already, please sign and share the petition asking for Ely's retirement. https://chng.it/JYVfXjkrV5 It is at sanctuary, Ely can begin to heal mentally, physically, and socially, under specialized care. #SaveEly #RetireEly
