Substantial article, on plenty of good sources, offline sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. - What do think about saying something about the elephants, using the great lead image? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:52, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
- @Gerda Arendt: Thanks! I added an ALT2, I think I like the first two options better, but I'd be very happy to have the image used as well, and ALT2 might be a good fit for that. I've also added the image you suggested (note the image is from 2008). Smmurphy(Talk) 17:51, 13 November 2017 (UTC)
I agree that ALT2 reads complicated, and is not exactly about this park, but ALT1 would work with the image, added "pictured" there. Leaving the choice with the prep builder. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:40, 13 November 2017 (UTC)
