TWEET STORM FOR #LUCY 

With 2024 assessment soon to be released, animal advocates are eager to know if they will pave the way for meaningful change or if the Edmonton Valley Zoo will continue its narrative of keeping Lucy where she is. The global community of animal lovers and welfare organisations remain vigilent, urging the zoo to reconsider and prioritize Lucys best interests. Please come together and # TakeActionForLucy

1/ #Lucy the 🐘 a long ⏰ resident of EVZoo is a symbol of controversy & concern 🌍 wide. Silence is not an option for #Lucy please click & share the tweet storm link to raise your concerns & voices for 🐘 #Lucy https://sites.google.com/view/tafl--2/home  pic.twitter.com/JZvhhSlbLW 

2.  🆘 @AmarjeetSohiYEG Why 1 rule for zoo & 1 rule for others. Why did @gdewar not accept Ingo,s 2022 assessment & say "He is not a veterinarian or medical expert" But accepted non vet non medical zooman Charles Greys assessment to 🛑 #Lucy 🧳 pic.twitter.com/yDqFtUndGx 

3. How come @CityofEdmonton @EdmontonClerk can address human gaps in housing & homelessness but can't address 🐘 #Lucys diabolical housing & lack of habitat which is prematurely killing her. #SanctuaryIsFree #TAFL  pic.twitter.com/vo6Ko7mDJG 

4/  @AshleyASalvador In January 2024 Edmonton declared a homelessness emergency. TO move #Lucy to #Sanctuary would free up thousands of $ to help with this crisis. It makes sense to give  #Lucy a 🇺🇲 ☀️ sanctuary TES 🏡  👀 📹 #TAFL pic.twitter.com/hFjL4U55Bv 

5/ @edmontonjournal 🌎  🥰 to see a 🐘 relocation. If @gdewar is constantly 🍒 picking experts who have a vested interest in captivity how can any assessment apart from her 2022 one be truly independent. @joeannewrightyyeg take in the video  #TAFL pic.twitter.com/HYm3cogjIk 

6/ @Kprincipeyeg @gdewar refused to accept Ingo Schmidinger 2022 assessment  stating he's not a vet or medical expert. So if he brings in anyone other than a 🐘 vet 🐘 expert to assess #Lucy will you refuse to accept their assessments ?  #TAFL pic.twitter.com/kyDL06CQTi 

7/ @AshleyASalvador It's  ⏰ for a new generation of leadership at EVZoo #Lucy is inherently a social animal, but lives alone. Power should be used for good ask why @gdewar never brings in Lek Chailert & Scott Blais 🌍 best when it comes to moving 🐘 pic.twitter.com/yDqFtUndGx

8/ @YourAlberta #Edmonton council publication states 🐘 to be kept just to gain public funds. BUT #YegZoo always loses millions it makes no difference if #Lucy is there or not.  @CityofEdmonton @AmarjeetSohiYEG👇 #TAFL pic.twitter.com/TBa1VkfYM9 

9/ @CityofEdmonton took the risk of transporting #Lucy to Calgary zoo in 1986 for breeding, but won't attempt to consider moving her to a sanctuary for retirement despite being in better health @AmarjeetSohiYEG   #TAFL pic.twitter.com/SWoELsKgII 

10/ @CityofEdmonton Imagine spending your entire life behind bars that's the reality for #Lucy far from her natural habitat. 🐘 need freedom not enclosures. Will 2024 assessment be done by true 🐘 experts or will #YEG 🍒 pick to fit their narrative ?  pic.twitter.com/okpy4DVg4z 

11/  @gdewar yegzoo manager 👁️  video of #Lucy in mental distress on display @FWEnforcement 🤔 distressing 🐘 is illegal by #Alberta animal welfare law. @AndrewKnack no one is caring for #Lucy properly hence all the complaints over decades  #TAFL pic.twitter.com/CmqxL134fI 

12/  @GlobalEdmonton  @michaeljanz @CTV 🌏 is puzzled why #journalists never Q why Lucy distressed alone in #yegzoo @CityofEdmonton @FWEnforcement 🌏 knows from #yeg records Lucy 🐘 is great traveler when it suits the zoo making 💸 💸 🤔 pic.twitter.com/6u1QkvUl0i 

13/ @kerentangyeg @AndrewKnack the bull hook IS IN Lucy's mouth why is #yegzoo saying its not! #yeg employees dedication 👇🐘💔 @GlobalEdmonton what can't #Media Coverage see as the 🌏 can  see #Lucy being hurt 👇 💔 @guardian pic.twitter.com/6lHuUTtFQe 

14/ @CBCEdmonton @CTVToronto did you know #Lucy can safely travel ! ask them how they know 🤔 It's public interest after decades of complaints ! #TAFL Majority of vets through #Lucys life report Lucy's suffering let's help her get to sanctuary now  pic.twitter.com/VqOc7kQPs9 

15/ Zoo director @gdewar emphasizes 2023 assessment with 2022 findings to follow up on medical issues. But why was only half the panel from 2022 brought back ? @AmarjeetSohi @CityofEdmonton @JustinTrudeau #TAFL pic.twitter.com/S6QxPJDpc5 

16/ 🚨Goodbye alert 🚨 When will #Lucy finally get her chance to soar ? 🧳 ✈️ Yet again she's overlooked as Red Panda flies off to be a companion. Will #Lucys time come soon ? @AmarjeetSohi @AndrewKnack pic.twitter.com/3LpFLSrIAw 

17/ In 2022, experts recommended #Lucy be moved to a sanctuary for her well being. So why hasn't the #EVZ followed up on this assessment❓#Lucy deserves a real chance at a better life & the experts are ready to help get her there. @erinforanirniq #TAFL  pic.twitter.com/8PfnVlwukf 

18/ May we say a massive thank you for tweeting for #Lucy. We will leave the sheet open so you can tweet everyday for #Lucy 🐘 pic.twitter.com/rOJd8p7bHA  https://sites.google.com/view/tafl--2/home
