Hello lactnetters, I am new to lactnet and am pleased to have found something I feel qualified to comment on, at last. Mary wrote recently about an elephant in a British zoo being fed well publicised SMA. This is not the first time this has happened. I recall watching a report on the children's news a few years ago which featured a young elephant being fed SMA - which must have been clearly visible in the report. I remember wondering about the commercial effect of having a formula reputed to making babies grow like elephants. Does SMA have a hotline to all zoos with pregnant elephants? I do enjoy the lactnet 'conversation.' from Veronika Tudhope, Kilmarnock, Scotland [log in to unmask]
