Here is a piece of advice: If you are growing old, suffer from depression, emotional distress and overall life has treated you badly… do not go to Puebla.
That is what a group of animal rights activists are trying to say in the saga surrounding Jenny, the “aging and emotionally troubled pachyderm,” who is scheduled to travel to Mexico’s pathetic mini-version of the African jungle, the Africam Safari.
The debate goes on, but those worried about Jenny’s Mexican fate, should be worried sick about a potentially more dangerous, unforeseen event: Should Jenny were to follow the steps of thousands of Puebla residents, we will soon have her roaming the streets of New York City.
Now, that’s a jungle you want her to avoid.
I know a lot of aging gringas that find new life in Mexico. Beats the heck out of living in Dallas.
