Fanny the Asian Elephant was the star attraction of the Slater Park Zoo in Pawtucket, Rhode Island from the late 1950s through the early 1990s. Children and families rushed to meet, feed, and chat with this gentle giant. She knew innately that her most important job was to bring joy and happiness to her visitors. After her job was complete at the Slater Park Zoo, she spent her retirement at the Black Beauty Ranch in Henderson County, Texas. There, she enjoyed the company of her companion, Conga, an African Elephant. She lived out the rest of her life happily, eating healthy and roaming free.
