a legend in South Africa and author of 3 books including the bestseller, <b><br>The Elephant Whisperer.</b> <br>He bravely rescued wildlife and rehabilitated elephants all over the globe <br>from human atrocities, including the courageous rescue of Baghdad Zoo <br>

led by two large matriarchs. Separate wild herds arrived in droves <br>to say goodbye to their beloved 'man-friend.'</span><u></u><u></u></p><p align="center" style="margin-right:0in;margin-left:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;text-align:center">

because of the supreme intelligence and precise timing that these <br>elephants sensed about Lawrence's passing, but also because of <br>the profound memory and emotion the beloved animals evoked <br>in such an organized way: <b>Walking slowly, for days, </b><br>
making their way in a solemn one-by-one queue from their habitat <br>to his house. Lawrence's wife, Francoise, was especially touched, <br>knowing that the elephants had not been to <b>his house prior to that day for well over 3 years! </b><br>
But yet they knew where they were going. The elephants obviously <br>wanted to pay their deep respects, honouring their friend <br>who'd saved their lives - so much respect that <b><br>they stayed for 2 days 2 nights without eating anything. <br>
Then one morning, they left, making their long journey <br>back home. <br><br>SOMETHING IN THE UNIVERSE IS GREATER <br>AND DEEPER THAN HUMAN INTELLIGENCE.</b></span></p></div>
