The baby elephant, Sheila, was moved out of Belfast Zoo because of fears she might be hit by bombers during the Belfast Blitz of 1941. She was one of the lucky ones. A lot of the animals were killed because of fears they might escape during the bombing and attack people. They included a tiger, a black bear, a lynx, a hyena, and two polar bears. But Sheila was walked down the road by zoo-keepers to a nearby house where a woman gave her sanctuary in her backyard for several months until the bombing was over. The woman has never been identified and the zoo knows her only as" the elephant angel".
