Doing foster care for human babies and small children is one thing, but how would you like to do it with a baby elephant? Jenny Webb adopted Moses, who was found abandoned in a river bed.
From USA Today:
"Elephants are extremely sensitive," said Webb. "It amazed me. We
think of elephants as big, strong creatures but they are very emotional.
Moses picks up on my feelings. If I am sad, he is nurturing. If I am
angry, he quickly gets upset."
Webb has placed a mattress on the
dining room floor where she and Moses curl up for the night. Moses gets
up about every two hours and shuffles around the room until Webb wakes
and gives him his bottle feed.
