Daisy is only three years old, but she
has a little history nevertheless. She
was discovered in Roudedisia, in the
Hartly district of Africa, October
1914. Mr.. Joseph left Nordick with
her and her sister for Australia some
time later, but the latter died two days
out of port.
On that trip the veteran animal
trainer had cargo of leopards, lions
antelopes and kangaroos. After arriv.

rest in one of the parks. When the
call came from the states for more
wild animals Joseph packed Daisy with
number of other African specimens
and sailed for Vancouver, being unable
to land her in Honolulu on that trip
AFTER remaining in Vancouver for q

Daisy has the honor of being one OF
twelve African elephants in captivity
The African elephant grows to be the
largest of the tribe. The ears mark
them apart from the Asiatic breed by
