    YEREVAN ZOO'S PLANS OF 'BRIGHTER FUTURE' FOR ELEPHANT HRANT INCLUDES FINDING HIM A MATE

    Yerevan Zoo management is currently developing plans to make
    17-year-old Hrant's life a little bit easier at the zoo: management is
    looking to build appropriate winter housing and expand the elephant's
    current digs - not to mention finding him a mate!

    Recall, Hrant has had one partner since he was brought from the Moscow
    Zoo in 1999, but Masha, who arrived at Yerevan Zoo in December 2007,
    died less than a year later, in August 2008.

    Yerevan Zoo Director Ruben Khachatryan informed Epress.am that in
    order to secure the funds to improve conditions for Hrant, the zoo
    is in talks with major Armenian confectionary company Grand Candy.

    "Talks are currently at the preliminary stage, but we're hopeful that
    we can ensure a much brighter future for Hrant," he said.
