Apparently in 1978, when they elephant house was being demolished, there was an attempt to remove the beautiful carving above(modeled after one of the original elephants at the zoo) but it was dropped and the trunk smashed into hundreds of pieces. Does any one know if it was ever reconstructed or exists today?
