Look at all those awfull chains. Its really nice that it is getting a nice bath. but the only thing those chains do is TORTURE. And did you see that bullhook? whenever the elephant takes just one wrong step, that hook will get hit into its skin

It makes me sad to see elephants being kept in captivity. They are wild animals, not pets. They deserve to live free and not be subject to torture at the hands of humans. Elephants are so smart and they suffer in captivity. They don't deserve this and people need to wake up and figure this out. Why do you think elephants kill so many people? Including the Mahouts...They are not immune from the rampage of an angry elephant.

[terran97]

@MsLabMom so what? better to exterminate the elephant pop? at least Indians are humble anough to co-exist with these giants. mebbe you should visit kerala first b4 making righteous comments. do you know the lifelong commitment these mahuts make to these majestic animals. you fucking douche.

What is the different of Elephant from India and Thailand, who had more numbers of elephants , Thai or india?

[meret99]

There are a lot of elephant attacks - can anyone expect better? The animals are not just captured and separated from their families, they chained, forced to walk on hot tar, beaten by drunken mahouts, poked and pricked by the goads, endure the noise and presence of immense temple crowds...these are just some of the "pleasures" of human company for these poor elephants.

@jennalol12

U act hysterical, and are screaming erratically.

Stay of the drugs, or else live the horrible life of a junkie:)

[meret99]

@Therealanimale no she is not! read my own response - there are a lot of us who hate the torture of these animals.

[jam1037]

These people have very few elephant attacks because they treat them MUCH better then circuses.

[jennalol12]

oh ye chaining them is something the elephants would want iigt?

[jam1037]

@jennalol12 No I'm sure it would rather be free.. How ever that fact is they treat them far better then circuses.
