LET MALI REST

She was brought to Manila as a gift to Imelda Marcos by the Sri Lankan government in 1977. At 11 months old, a baby in elephant years, still needing mother's milk. But, no, she had to be displayed to the public and so she was brought to the Manila Zoo where stayed as an attraction for the next 46 years.

For the first 13 years she had a companion, Shiva, another female elephant, but she passed away in 1990, leaving her completely forlorn in her small enclosure, standing still most of the time on concrete ground then moving around in circles - while children called and waved at her with delight, clueless about the state of her health.

She was called the "world's saddest elephant". She was underweight for an elephant her age. Animal rights activists pointed to her foot sores as a result of walking around in her concrete prison, her skin problems and lack of stimulation that kept her still and quiet.

To those who had never seen a live elephant before she was a wild amusement, the first thing you saw entering Manila Zoo. My twins visited her at least twice between 2015 and 2017 when they were little and already she wasn't looking good. I didn't want to spoil their fun by saying there were tears in her eyes but one couldn't help noticing.

There were calls to bring her to an elephant sanctuary in Thailand and appeals to import another elephant to give her a partner but they fell on deaf ears.

When she died in 2023, the children who grew up seeing her as a more or less permanent fixture in the zoo were now adults with kids of their own - but Mali was an old and decrepit animal, alone for the last 33 years of her miserable existence.

Even in death, she will have no rest. Tone deaf officials of the City of Manila flayed her and stuffed her pelt and bones for display at the Museum of Natural History, where she will have to stand on a hard floor forever and ever, a fixture and furniture in life and in death. She doesn't even look majestic unlike the African elephant Chavit Singson mounted in his Vigan museum, tall and awesome, who at least lived in the jungle in complete freedom until Chavit assassinated him with his hunting r***e.

This does not look right. This is completely heartless. Mali was a victim of neglect and animal cruelty. Bury her. Let her rest.
