LEAP 🇨🇦🐘💜

LEAP NEEDS 🫵 for a fun event
Local #Lucy supporters must continue to show the local community that we are STILL battling for Lucy's freedom.
Having a presence at local events is imperative.

More foot problems for #Lucy
We must never forget foot problems in zoos is a real killer of elephants.
@andrewknack.bsky.social it would be nice if you can support #Lucys relocation to sanctuary as part of your mayoral campaign.
@climateinstitute.bsky.social this climate mitigator needs sanctuary

Can you explain how this can ever be justified @theglobeandmail.com
@edmontonjournal.com
@cityofedmonton.bsky.social

Having total control over an elephants bodily functions is not autonomy.
You should be truly ashamed & investigate why this is happening.
Better still free Lucy to sanctuary.

To add to the impact of the documentary “Lucy the stolen lives of elephants “ comes this strong informative post from Voice for Asian Elephants “ Captivity is killing elephants”

Gary response re: Lucy's foot

Lucy has a lesion on her toe that is being treated. Our Veterinarian has requested that it be kept free of debris. The dressing consists of vet wrap and gauze which is covered by duct taped bandage.

1/ Tabling Event at a dance competition (don’t have to 💃)
LEAP has a table reserved at the blow event; this is another good opportunity for locals to step in to advocate for Lucy.

Needed Volunteers for a four hour shift (anytime between 3:00 & 11:00) to be at the LEAP table.

The current temperature is -33C. It has been very cold for the past few weeks. So Lucy is stuck in that dismal barn 24/7. Elephants are not indoor animals. Poor Lucy 😭

We need to demand that the next leader of the Liberal Party commits to enforcing laws meant to protect Lucy & ensures Lucy gets the care she desperately needs.

🙏 📧 the candidates in pic & ask:

Will you commit to enforcing existing laws to ensure Lucy is sent to a sanctuary 👇

Thank you for your kind words.
So many amazing people around the world are now standing up for Lucy, let’s hope Edmonton listens soon and Lucy is allowed to make her way to sanctuary. @amarjeetsohiyeg.bsky.social
Be kind do the right thing and retire Lucy to the sunshine of TES elephant sanctuary

Gary Dewar is notorious for throwing out sound bites in the media that initially appease Edmontonians, but rarely are they followed through with.
Write to Gary at gary.dewar@edmonton.ca and ask him where that therapeutic pool for Lucy is ⁉️

Severe winter weather conditions for areas northeast and south of Edmonton are impacting travel. Heavy snow and strong winds are causing dangerous driving conditions with zero visibility.

Please think of poor #Lucy 😢

support us. We share our 10th Anniversary year with Lucy as she also hits a milestone this year and will turn 50. Thank you to all, past, present and future supporters for all you have done to help LEAP still be here. We plan on keeping it up until we all can celebrate! #RetireLucy

years. Some with friendly parting, some with not so friendly partings. We’ve had groups that were here before us and groups that started up after us. All have disappeared but not LEAP! The core admins are still here and still continue to fight the fight. We hope you will all continue to join us &

2025 LEAP has its 10th Anniversary. When we started this grassroots organization, we didn’t think we’d still be fighting for Lucy to go to sanctuary 10 years later! We’ve had our hopes raised up and dashed down. We’ve had admins, organizations, followers and supporters come and go over those past 10

Feels like -13 in #Edmonton today and once again #Lucy has a long freezing winter ahead of her.
Her new report says she’s really well and healthy for an older elephant. But once again come the excuses.
As Edmonton Tax Payers we ask #CityOfEdmonton to stop wasting our $ and get #Lucy to sanctuary.

Confinement indoors can also be a significant factor
to foot problems for #Lucy (through extended exposure to unnatural substrates), circulatory issues and obesity. Cold temperatures
also exacerbate arthritis and may be contributing to Lucy's
undiagnosed respiratory condition.
