Hi
Can anyone tell me if the elephants at the zoo are washed on a sunday at 3pm? If not any ideas when. Have a 4 yr old desperate to see it and can't find out anywhere.
Thanks.

Here's the Basel Zoo website: http://www.zoobasel.ch/

I looked everywhere but couldn't find any information about elephant washing.

Edit: just found a pdf file and it does mention elephant training and bathing but says to see the boards at the location for exact times.

Don't know how far you'd be willing to travel, but in Zurich, the elephants get their shower at around 9:30 every morning

Sorry to sound Capt. Obvious, but how about calling the zoo and asking?
I am sure you'll find someone who speaks english too!

Thanks for replies.
Went to zoo and it is true the elephants are bathed at 3pm, it's really busy but reat fun to see. One happy 4 yr old.

Thanks for letting us know! I bet your little one loved it

That's good to hear Sometimes I really miss my daughter not being a little one anymore, can't remember the last time I've been to the Zoo..
