Kandula accompanied King Dutugamunu from a very young age. King Dutugamunu used the elephant in battle as a mount to survey his surroundings. With Kandura, King Dutugamunu claimed victory in many battles and praised the elephant continuously for its contributions.

Abraham Bartlett, the Superintendent of the London Zoological Gardens, put the little elephant into the care of animal keeper Matthew "Scotty" Scott. Scotty had a talent for understanding and managing animals. Jumbo grew stronger and healthier under Scotty's care. In a report to the Zoological Society’s Council (relayed in The Times on 9 March 1882), Bartlett expressed his anxiety about what to do “in the event of illness or accident” to Matthew Scott, the only keeper that Jumbo would respond to. “In conclusion, I may ask that I should be provided with, and have at hand, the means of killing this animal, should such a necessity arise.” WILDLIFE FUN: Keep your youngster entertained for hours while learning! Add to other animal toy sets allowing your kids to create and explore When the British learned that their beloved Jumbo was going to be sold, they were outraged. Bartlett received many angry letters. Children begged Bartlett to keep Jumbo in London. An effort was made to stop the sale by going to court, but Barnum won. The British courts said he was the legal owner of Jumbo. Care Instructions: Simply spot clean with a damp cloth when needed to keep them looking their best. Educational Aspect:

Sutherland, John. Jumbo: The Unauthorised Biography of a Victorian Sensation, Aurum Press, 2014, ISBN 978-1781312445 I had originally intended this to be a single post, but fittingly for an elephant this large, I have decided to divide his story into three separate parts. Look out for the second and third installments). Tale ends Jumbo was born around December 25, 1860, in Sudan, [1] and after his mother was killed by poachers, the infant Jumbo was captured by Sudanese elephant poacher Taher Sheriff and German big-game poacher Johann Schmidt. [1] The calf was sold to Lorenzo Casanova, an Italian animal dealer and explorer. Casanova transported the animals that he had bought from Sudan north to Suez, and then across the Mediterranean Sea to Trieste. Does anyone know of a pamphlet from Gottlieb Kreutzberg’s Gro β e Menagerie in which Jumbo appears before he was sold on to Paris? Jumbo is referenced by a plaque outside the old Liberal Hall, now a Wetherspoons pub, in Crediton, United Kingdom. [1]

Captivating Arctic Animals: Inspire your child's imagination with six magnificent Arctic animals, including charming penguins and majestic polar bears. Each animal toy boasts intricate details, realistic textures, and vibrant colours that make them truly captivating and educational. Jumbo lived in the London Zoo about 16 years. He was the biggest elephant in captivity. American circus showman P. T. Barnum simply had to have this huge elephant in his circus. He bought Jumbo in 1882. The elephant made his debut in the United States on Easter Sunday 1882 at Madison Square Garden in New York City. He toured with Barnum's circus for three years. In September 1885, he was killed in a railroad accident in Canada. Remaining in the United Kingdom are statues and other memorabilia of Jumbo. Although the hide was destroyed by a major fire, Jumbo remains the mascot of Tufts, and representations of the elephant are featured prominently throughout the campus. Jumbo was one of the first animal celebrities in London's history. Born in Sudan, in east Africa, he was imported to Europe and moved into London Zoo in 1865.
