When Lufutuko was rescued, she was so frail that the Keepers didn't want to name her.  But she did survive, and aptly, was named "Lufutuko", the "one who survived" in the local language of Tonga.  Affectionately know as "Tuko" she became a playful elephant, enjoying the companionship of the the younger elephants and rolling in a mud bath.  She also enjoys playing with branches - hence why Tuko is carrying a branch in her trunk.
