The 100-strong herd is on the move again. In August, their global journey brings them Boston, MA, where they will migrate along Commonwealth Avenue Mall with sightings of smaller family groups expected along Dartmouth Street and outside Boston Public Library.

As The Great Elephant Migration Migration arrives in Boston, we acknowledge that the city centre stands on the unceded ancestral homelands of the Massachusett people, with deep ties to the Pawtucket, Wampanoag, and Nipmuc nations, who have lived, travelled, and cared for these lands for millennia.

We recognise the ongoing presence, resilience, and leadership of Indigenous peoples across the region, and we offer respect and gratitude to the communities who continue to steward these lands today.
