Go wild with PAWS (Performing Animal Welfare Society)—an animal sanctuary founded by former Hollywood animal trainer Pat Derby and her partner, Ed Stewart, in 1984. What started as a small space intended only to care for Pat's own retired animals has become one of the largest animal sanctuaries in the world and a unique way of life for Pat and Ed. In this show, we focus on the unique relationship they maintain with the eight elephants in residence.
