Elephants on a plane! Bob Barker flies 3 to sanctuary

Mara, 28, an African elephant originally from San Jose's Happy Hollow Zoo, wanders in a field at PAWS ARK 2000 sanctuary in San Andreas, Calif. on November 14, 2001. She will soon meet three other African elephants retiring from the Toronto Zoo who arrive on Aug. 2.  It took two years of planning to fly three African elephants from the Toronto Zoo to their retirement home at a 2,300-acre sanctuary in San Andreas. The elephants are scheduled to take off on Aug. 2, and Bob Barker is footing bill, expected to be up to $1 million.
