We go back to 2002 when Kyle Kellams paid a visit to the small town of Quitman where, at that time, 14 elephants had found sanctuary with Scott and Heidi Riddle. The Riddle's Elephant and Wildlife Sanctuary opened in 1990 to provide a permanent home for African and Asian elephants.

Kyle Kellams is KUAF's news director and host of Ozarks at Large.
