| | Charity Navigator Rating - The Elephant Sanctuary |
 | | The Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee, founded in 1995, is the nation's largest natural habitat refuge developed specifically for endangered African and Asian elephants. |
 | | It operates on 2,700 acres in Hohenwald, Tennessee - 85 miles southwest of Nashville. |
 | | The Elephant Sanctuary exists for two reasons: to provide a haven for old, sick or needy elephants in a setting of green pastures, old-growth forests, spring-fed ponds and a heated barn for cold winter nights; and to provide education about the crisis facing these social, sensitive, passionately intense, playful, complex, exceedingly intelligent and endangered creatures. |
