 Now they'll only be displayed on sofa recliners - and they'll be wearing

 Detroit Zoo to Free Elephants on Ethical Grounds
 By Michael Ellis

   DETROIT (Reuters) - The Detroit Zoo will become the first major zoo to
 stop exhibiting elephants on ethical grounds because they can develop
 arthritis and stress-related ailments in captivity, officials said on
 Thursday.

   The Detroit Zoo has one of the largest facilities in the country, but
 its Asian elephants Winky and Wanda still have recurring foot problems
 due to the cold weather, Director Ron Kagen told Reuters




 Maybe we'll see Winky and Wanda at the festival this year!!
