On August 20, 1994, the poor, suffering 20-year-old female elephant Tyke, who on several previous attempts tried to escape but was recaptured and kept in captivity instead of being relocated to a wildlife park or rescue, being abused and beaten for years as a circus elephant, including from her alcohol- and cocaine-addicted trainer who had been the focus of numerous previous complaints of animal abuse, escapes from the Honolulu circus arena and dies bellowing on the streets of Honolulu from nerve destruction and brain hemorrhaging after the pig cops of Honolulu bravely pump 87 bullets into her crumbling, blood-soaked, sobbing body (August 20, 1994).  REMEMBER TYKE!

After the ladies arrived in Chicago, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals kept track of their well-being and knew their health was declining.  This was easily predicted.  The cold winters had forced zoo keepers to keep the animals indoors in a small-sized jail, with its orthopedically and medically dangerous concrete floors.  When massive animals take a step in the wild, natural environment, the grasses, sod, and soil muffle the concussion that occurs when the foot lands.  When walking on concrete or pavement, no such shock- absorbing effect occurs.  The damaging effects exceed the orthopedic ones.  When that force hits the elephant's body, the concussion is transmitted through the legs, and upward through all the organs of the body, rupturing their cells.  This occurs notably among the delicate cells of the alveoli of the lungs.  That is the source of the well-documented prevalence of deaths due to tuberculosis, a disease of the lungs, among captive elephants and other large mammals. As the many organs in the body necessary for digestion are also damaged, emaciation is also a common occurrence.  Damage to brain tissues results in dementia.  Ruptured capillaries results in internal bleeding and anemia.
