wildlife want to hire an elephant for a day for a mothers day gift

We all have dreams and thank you for sharing yours with us :-)

I can just see your mum's face! She'd love it!
Go for it.
Try the zoos in your area or Chessington for contact numbers.
Elephants are sentient beings that like a really good party!
There are people who will say that you are exploiting an endangered species.
But that is sentimentality - and your sentiments must be with your mother.

Just for one day? Woud you really disappoint your mother by taking it away the next day?

An elephant is for life, not just for Mothers' Day!

That would be so beautiful. You could make a colonial India theme and have one of those turbaned elephant drivers there to take her for a ride. You could get an old-fashioned tea service, and parasols, and a lovely picnic set-up. It would be like a dream.
