UPDATE: You are all too good at this!! 🙂 Yes, it’s Maia! 100% correct!! Well done!!
Who wants to guess? Who thinks they know the answer?
Part of the reason for doing these posts is that many people have said they have trouble telling the girls apart. There are little tricks to determining who is who, some more obvious than others. This is a cute way for everyone to get to know the lady’s appearance a little better.
We will provide the answer on Monday!

Jane PLETZ says
February 16, 2020 at 1:37 pmI also think it is Maia.
EleComposer says

February 16, 2020 at 1:40 pmThis is without a doubt the gorgeous Maia!
EleComposer says
February 17, 2020 at 9:23 amIt certainly is! Correct!
Kelejan says
February 16, 2020 at 1:51 pmProcess of elimination. MAIA. I admit I cheated a little by looking up their pictures. But this is a good way to learn which one is which when they are next to each other. We love them all.
EleComposer says
February 17, 2020 at 9:23 amCheating is absolutely allowed – even encouraged! in this case 🙂 Yes, it is Maia!
Kelejan says
February 16, 2020 at 2:32 pmI think you are presenting us with the easiest question first then it will get harder and harder. Just like you treat the girls, a little at a time.
EleComposer says
February 17, 2020 at 9:33 am?

February 16, 2020 at 3:29 pmExcellent! Keep testing us :o)! Love the independent ear flaps on Maia (right I hope). If she was munching on palms, no question.
EleComposer says
February 17, 2020 at 9:24 am? You are definitely right – it is Maia!
Dean says
February 16, 2020 at 4:09 pmPocha & Guillermia are at CITES, do you know long that step will take. Every day I look at this blog and home there is movement.
Also I have been unemployed for 9 months. I am starting a job tomorrow – I should have money in 3 weeks. Is there something else I can do other than donate
EleComposer says
February 17, 2020 at 10:59 amHi Dean, Mara is the next elephant coming to sanctuary, then P&G after her. Timeframe for P&G is ballpark 3-4 months. Mara still needs that final piece of paperwork (should be soon) and then her 30-day quarantine. P&G still need paperwork completed by the ecoparque (it’s progressing fine, but a lot of it), further training from Karissa for their quarantine, then their 30-day quarantine. We will definitely share news as it becomes available. As for ways to help, please keep sharing and spreading the word! Good luck with your new job!! Thanks!

February 17, 2020 at 6:17 pmI always smile when I read your updates on the girls interactions. I personally think Lady has had a bad experience with another elephant, and maybe that is why she is so guarded. It has to be good for her to be able to see the human and other eles interact when they are receiving treatments, maybe that is why she is doing better. Again, thank you for the updates.
