When the last African elephant at the Johannesburg Zoo lost her male companion to illness in September, some people said 39-year-old Lammie should be sent to a bigger sanctuary so she wouldn't spend her final years alone. The zoo now says Lammie is staying, and that a search for a new mate is underway. (AP Photo/Denis Farrell, File)
