Staff say the elephants are particularly terrified of the gunshots and helicopters overhead. 2/

For years, rescued narco exotic pets & circus animals have lived at the Ostok sanctuary, but worsening cartel fighting has frequently blocked staff from reaching the sanctuary, so animals are forced to go for days without food. It has taken months to plan their escape. 3/

“We’ve never seen violence this extreme” “The animals came here for a better future.” They have all been taken to a seaside wildlife refuge at Mazatlán, hopefully to find a kind of peace. 4/4

Dr Tom Montgomery Imagine the costly endeavour and efforts involved in moving these animals safely without causing them more trauma. Our admiration and deep respect must surely go to the staff whose courageous hearts undertook such a high-risk and compassionate operation.

Update: After six hours on the road, the animals start to be unloaded in their new home.

Dr Tom Montgomery Such bravery from the sanctuary staff! Wishing them and the animals safety. 🦁

Dr Tom Montgomery Poor, poor animals, thanks to all helping them. Hope everyone keeps safe x
