The Travel Group of the Marco Island Woman’s Club frequently embarks on day trips to points of interest in southern Florida. They recently explored the wonders of Myakka Elephant Ranch, a non-profit conservation center. The ranch offers a unique experience of elephant conservation education in the spirit of their motto, “In the end we will conserve only what we love; we will love only what we understand; and we will understand only what we are taught.” – Baba Dioum, African Forestry Engineer, 1968.
