Caldwell Zoo in Tyler, Texas recently welcomed two new African elephants to its family of more than 3,400 animals from around the world. The 85-acre park first opened to visitors in 1953 and has grown considerably in the decades since. Open seven days a week, the zoo is an ideal destination for families, school groups, and anyone with an appreciation for wildlife and nature.

Here’s a look at some of the photos and video I took on a recent visit.
