Episode Details

Missy, the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo’s oldest African elephant, needed help standing after a sudden decline—her keepers stepped in with specialized gear to get her back on her feet. Now resting in the barn on pain meds and anti-inflammatories, she’s under close watch as her future remains uncertain. The zoo, no stranger to senior elephant care, knows the challenges of aging—weak trunk, vision loss, skin and tooth changes—and has trained extensively for emergencies like this. With compassion and preparation, Missy’s team is committed to keeping her comfortable and engaged, updating the public every step of the way.
