Here the last comment of reader “sbisslan” in the Anchorage Daily News on her, for some persons, controversial move to a sanctuary in Tennessee. Lots of comments can be read in here:

I was very surprised and elated that I was able to join the group at Elmendorf Hanger 5 to watch Maggie arrive and loaded on the C-17–a plane that is immortalized as Maggies with an elephant emblem beside the door! What large equipment, what careful handling, and what enthusiastic airmen and officers. Lt General Fraser, head of the Alaska Command was almost like a little boy with excitement and Wing Commander Gen Tinsley was delighted the AF could participate in this community endeavor. Perhaps we should rename the blog ‘Maggie Settles In at PAWS.” In the meantime, the Alaska Zoo has many projects to support, animals to visit and care for, and is a lovely place to walk about and let life’s stresses dissipate.
