“Asian elephants, pygmy hippos, and the world’s largest rodents (capybaras) are among the animals that call the Elephant House home, and interpreters there share with visitors the natural history and status of these diverse species, explain the Zoo’s management of the animals, and provide visitors hands-on experiences with a hippo skull, an elephant tooth, a giraffe hide, and other animal artifacts. Interpreters may also narrate the elephant-training demonstrations that take place daily at 11 a.m.” - Community Dispatch
