THE ALBUQUERQUE BIOPARK ZOO HAS LOST ONE OF ITS MALE ELEPHANTS… BUT IT’S ONLY A CHANGE IN LOCATION. SAMSON, A 19 YEAR OLD ASIAN ELEPHANT, IS NOW AT THE OREGON ZOO IN PORTLAND, RECOGNIZED WORLDWIDE FOR ITS ASIAN ELEPHANT PROGRAM.
THE ALBUQUERQUE BIOPARK STILL HAS ONE ASIAN ELEPHANT BULL, ALBERT, WHO’S SAMSON’S HALF BROTHER. SAMSON WAS BORN IN MAY OF 1998 IN ONTARIO, CANADA…AND MOVED TO THE BIOPARK ZOO IN 2003.
