To whom it may concern, I am conducting a project in my AP Research class in which I am designing a benchmark elephant habitat that can be used for guiding future zoological standards/ending the debate on elephants in zoos as a whole, and I was wondering something regarding the animal welfare requirements. How were those quantified? I ask because I want to calculate averages based off of Planet Zoo's stipulations, the AZA's stipulations, the EAZA's stipulations, WAZA's stipulations, etc. I have also read articles which state that space isn't as important of a factor as members of a multigenerational herd, keeper interaction, enrichment opportunities, etc. I wanted to contact Frontier through the direct means available but I am unable to see whether or not my message went through, so here I am doing it through this. Please let me know as soon as possible, my paper is due on May 26th at 11:59 PM EST. Sincerely, StoppableSan
