About this audio guide
This guide to Emirates Park Zoo and Resort in Abu Dhabi follows two elephants, Radha and Madhu, hauled for years through a traveling circus and kept in chains between shows. It traces the enclosure keepers built for Radha's damaged feet and Madhu's learned aggression, and the reward-based training method used daily to rebuild trust with no hooks and no punishment. Look closely at their legs during a public feeding session for the old scars still visible today.
