Nikita Dhawan talks with Mark Stratton about Bunka the elephant.

Nikita: Hi Mark, can you start by giving us some background information about the campaign and the conditions Bunka is living in?

Mark: Bunka is a 15-year-old male elephant who resides in Yerevan Zoo in Armenia, which is in the Caucasus region of Far Eastern Europe, bordering Asia. He has been living alone in the zoo since 2014 when he was taken from his mother, who is currently residing in Tbilisi Zoo. Bunka has been growing up on his own with no other elephants in the zoo, making his situation quite isolating.
