freshwaterNice one she el. I suppose they told you the elephants were either rescued or for conservation, which is bs.
Two of my close friends spend months each year in Thailand and Bali careing for these traumatised animals used for the tourist trade, for rides like yours. .

Elephant tourist parks, camps and shows exist in many parts of Asia including Bali. Tourist demand to get close to these iconic animals is fueling the cruel and abusive treatment of elephants. It is often claimed that tourist elephants are “rescued” or being kept for conservation. The reality is that encouraging human-elephant interactions is contrary to conservation and rehabilitation efforts. Training and housing elephants in captivity results in immense suffering and encourages the illegal trade in elephants. unquote
I find it appalling that nobody here seems to know about the elephants being used for the tourist trade in places like Bali, and the incredibly cruel methods for 'training' them, especially with the crushing method.
Maybe if you google ..........elephants used in the tourist trade Bali......... you will be as sickened as me.
Thanks for posting
Maybe the more people who read this the
More they will realize how oppressive behaviour
Impacts on the lives of all creatures
Great and small and that life is too short to
Spend your time undermining others who are
Perhaps less fortunate than yourself
!!! ONE MORE SLEEP !!!
