LYON, FRANCE. For Pankov and Mako, it was love at first sight. When the two elephants first saw each other in the Lyon zoo, they fell head over heels in love.
For 34 years, the two elephants looked after each other and were happy. Then one day, Mako got sick. He fell into a ditch by the elephants' cage. A few months later, on a cold January day, he passed away.
Pancov was brokenhearted. Over and over, zookeepers tried to feed her, but she refused to eat. Although Pancov had a sweet tooth, she even refused her favorite treat, sweet spiced wine. Nothing could cheer her up.Pancov didn't eat for four weeks, and she went from bad to worse. On Valentine's Day, a month after Mako's Death, zookeepers found Pancov in the same ditch. The night, she died of a broken heart.
About You:
1. Do you believe in love at first sight, or do you think love grows over time?
2. Do you think animals have emotions?
3. Do you have a sweet tooth?
