For the record, Mayor Dimauro did continue to try to make life better for Morganetta. In 1979, after the demise of Forest Park’s resident polar bear, the facility closed and Morganetta was moved to the Los Angeles Zoo. Her home there was much bigger. It had a pool, and toys, and two older elephants. I wouldn’t characterize myself as a tree hugger but I do love the natural beauty of the great outdoors and have a passion for observing the flora and fauna of my environment.

And ..."what are you hiding *OLD WOMAN*,... wasn't it YOUR daughter who went missing too"?

After a trip to the library, I sat down at my kitchen table, and I wrote to the mayor of Springfield, MA, asking him to give Morganetta more space, and more freedom. The Boston Globe notes, "Picoult does her homework, and her main themes are thoroughly researched and engrossingly presented. With this new novel, 'Leaving Time,' her fans will not be disappointed." [16] Alice goes into detail how "an elephant never forgets". Their memory is so good that if somebody hurt their young years before ... they would still hold a grudge against that person. It was so tender to hear Alice's voice describing the different ways a mother elephant protects her young. She didn't need to tell us that the elephant grieved in the same way human's do --- we FELT it loud and clear. Alice's voice
