I may be wrong but I even have trouble buying into that excuse of culling. Chances are Perth zoo bought out the Malaysian authorities into importing these elephants. .
A baby elephant that rocks back and forth like that as such an early age is definitely traumatized. They don't say where they GOT the elephants from either. They are ORPHANS, what happened to their Mothers?? It is a shame that human interference causes baby elephants to lose their families! Sending them to a ZOO is not saving them. They are still in captivity. The Aussie's comment about Malaysia not being able to handle more than 1500 elephants is ludicrous. I bet he is seeing dollar signs.
The only time an animal should be trained is for the vet to check on the health of the animal. If a "sanctuary" doesn't feel right for you when you visit, it's probably not right.
There are many "sanctuaries", even official ones in Asia operating more like commercial outfits. A proper sanctuary will not make the elephants perform any tricks at all. That is correct education - to allow visitors to enjoy the animals' natural antics and behaviour, not forced tricks - regardless of justifications given.
WHERE are these babies now? they are not at the Perth Zoo according to the elephant database. Looks like the chains are bothering them. That bothers me. They look terrified.
i can not imagine what kind of pathetic miserable people would make such dark comments about the torture of animals. you know they do have therapy for people like you available i am sure which ever country you are from. i would like you to seriously seek help before you harm your self or any other living creature. if you can't find that help i can give you some mail addresses
I hope they are ok - the little guy who's rocking himself constantly seems a bit anxious.
I don't like that they keep them chained too far apart to touch each other - elephants touch each other for comfort, and baby orphans need all the comfort they can get.
All they have is each other so I really hope they'll be able to live close together and grow up as a family.

Sometimes I wish elephants would stop being the gentle giants they are so that people won't take advantage of them.
Human beings are not worthy of the compassion and friendship of elephants. Poor babies.

@lavender880 I TOTALLY agree with you. I'm no zoologist, but I know about the rocking behaviors. They are traumatized.

Not true - there are NO working elephants in Malaysia, farms or plantations. Elephants in captivity in Malaysia are in zoos/theme parks.
