Discovering NYC

Please comment to this post and reflect on what you discovered about New York City.

I visited The Great Elephant Migration, an outdoor installation in the Meatpacking District of 100 hand-crafted elephants created by the indigenous people of India’s India’s Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve to raise awareness of these endangered wildlife and to support conservation organizations. The elephant sculptures were created by indigenous artisans and made of latana camara, an invasive species that is endangering the forests of India and the food source for elephants and other animals. I “discovered” the elephants on a beautiful autumn day with my friend and scores of adults and children, and it was joyous.
