Maybe people have seen videos of elephants where they sort of rock backwards and forwards or sway from side to side.

It's performed by animals to reduce anxiety and stress levels.

We've already seen with Julie a marked reduction in stereotypical behaviours.

She's clearly feeling less anxious or stressed than she previously was.

So really happy for her.

I guess maybe the overriding emotion was relief.

Fortunately for us...

Her journey from where she was located to Pangea, I'm going to say was, I think, less than two and a half hours from start to finish.

It's still, you know, an elephant out on the open road in the back of the transporter.

There is some jeopardy that surrounds that.

But yeah, that initial one, definitely relief.

Now, obviously moving forward with her.

There's a lot of hope for the future with her.

Seeing her transform into a much bolder character, that's wonderful to see.

I just feel immensely proud and happy for her.

So originally, we had hoped that an elephant in a Belgian zoo, Kariba, would have been our first arrival.

The logistics surrounding Kariba's potential transport was a lot more complex than Julie's ever was.

So, I mean, we're just, you know, we're happy that we have Julie here.

Of course, our ambitions go way beyond just one or two elephants.
