What is beautiful, gray and wants to wear a glass slipper? Cinderelephant, that's who. There is an update on the Motola story I wrote last week. (Motola is the three-ton elephant who had her leg blown off by a landmine. She was fitted with a custom made fake leg.) Unfortunately, Motola went to lay down and bent the new leg. They had to take the fake leg back off to fix it. The Prostheses Foundation (they also make legs/arms for people) will reattach it on Saturday. Someone should have tested it before hand to make sure it would hold her weight when she moved around. Poor girl, I'm sure she just wants to be able to run and play with the other elephants.
