Question 15:
Dear Mr. Thompson,
a. Remember how you used to sing "Baby Mine" to help me sleep? Well, now I hum it to the new rescue elephants when they arrive. It really helps them feel safe, just like it did for me.
b. You probably don't remember me, but I'm LK—the baby elephant you rescued from poachers in Kenya five years ago. Mom says I was only two months old then, barely able to stand on my wobbly legs.
c. I'm writing to tell you that I'm doing great at the sanctuary! My trunk is getting stronger every day.
d. The other day, I even helped rescue a stuck baby giraffe by pulling down a branch she was tangled in. I guess I learned from the best!
e. Thank you for giving me a second chance at life. The sanctuary is now protecting 47 elephants, and I heard you're still out there fighting for wildlife conservation. You're my hero!
With gratitude,
LK
