Anne The Circus Elephant Playing At Longleat

[bancircuses]

Thanks for rescuing Anne Longleat it is clear to me that she is now full of the joys of life and getting stronger and stronger by the day now she is out of those bloody prison chains!!! Oh yes bit by bit her broken spirit is gradually being rebuilt.

I am extremely happy that Anne is now living a happy life which she had long missed as an elephant, I also hope her arthritis legs will be cured. Sad to see her dragging her two hind legs which are swelled. Till now, I still feels the pain for her. Hope that ass keeper was already caught with penalty heavily sentenced on him. Can't let him get away just like this.

Good entertainment would be watching Bobby Robinson get his teeth knocked out, much better than any circus.

Also just in case people didnt know, theres been another video release about the trainers of "Have trunk will travel" Or if you've watched "Water for Elephants" you may have seen an elephant Called Rosie on set, Real name is Tai the video footage which has been released in may but taken back in 2005 shows the trainers and the owners using electric prods and bullhooks to train their elephants, there is not just tai in the video but more adult elephants and a baby. Hopefully one day theyll be free

So happy she is free from the life of the circus, it may have taken a while but at last she is free to move around and play and be as free as possible, not only did the footage of her abuse save her from continuing in the circus, but helped many other animals by banning the use of animals in circus's in the UK :D Anne doesnt know it but she is a hero! its nice to see her having fun and not performing tricks or being harmed, i love a happy ending!

Arthritis....yeah no doubt. What did Bobby think was going to happen to his "family pet" when she was left to stand in a barn all day on a two foot chain?

[SexyEnglishGirl]

Awwww bless her, it is so nice to know that there are lots of kind people out there who help animals rather than hurt them. I hope Anne is very happy and at peace at Longleat :) xxx

[DeathKitty123456]

she looks so happy :) poor elephant! at least she'll be looked after now!

[EnglishLaaayDeee]

There is a circus due in Mirfield, West Yorkshire, not sure exactly when, but it's soon. They use animals when travelling in other countries, please BOYCOTT.

On a lighter note, bless her having so much fun now, I hope she has at least a few years left to relax and enjoy. Nice if she could have a companion, she may never have had any such company 

[thestreetsempty]

Why are people standing around snapping photos of her? I thought she was gonna be able to not be gawked at by everyone. This should be her time for healing; not to be made a "cash cow" or commodity.

Glad she is away from the circus. Now, I hope people leave her alone.

I am looking forward to the day when i can see any picture of Anne, without tears streaming down my face! It's too wonderful to see her enjoying her days in her sand-pit. After all the pain and suffering she has endured in her long, sad life, I so hope she can manage to hang on for a few more years. Wish so much that the three elephants in that vile Romanian circus could join Anne at Longleat.

I AM SO HAPPY SHE HAS A LIFE NOW !

[Kenjofire]

What a wonderful moment, to see this magnificent animal playing. why is it though that so many people are watching the videos of Anne being beaten and abused. Although I have not watched the vile video myself, is it not more entertaining to see an animal having fun, rather than being abused??? Does any one know if the man who abused Anne (other than the circus owner) has been bought to justice? one can only hope so!!

[cathiiannii]

@Kenjofire its the abuse video that shook everyone up enough to campaign and take action! only revealing the true horror can stir people to get off their butts and help animal campaigners do their work.i sign all the causes i believe in.annes one too.i get emotional but the outcome is SO worth it.

[monksworld1]

Such a wonderful video, so happy Anne is finally free, just such a shame it took so long. Id now like to see a video of that sick bastard torturing Anne being beaten, kicked and abused........that would be an even happier ending! 

[ourfatcats]

@monksworld1

I too would be very happy indeed to watch that. That cruel individual has to be punished for the barbaric cruelty he inflicted on Anne, I cannot get the suffering out of my mind. What right has Man to use these poor creatures just to line there own greedy pockets? MAY HE SUFFER VERY, VERY SLOWLY

[jamexxxxxx]

she is kind of overweight

play precious girl,

welcome to a

kinder world

[MsCelticFairy]

So wonderful to see Anne having fun, possibly for the first time in decades. I hope her health problems can be resolved and she can live out the rest of her life learning that not all humans are bad. May justice prevail and her previous 'owners'/torturers be prosecuted and punished for the life of hell and misery they put her through for decades. May ALL circuses exploiting animals for human 'entertainment' finally be banned and all animals be as fortunate as Anne to end up in sanctuaries.

[suecarger]

to the people who rescued Anne from her sad life, you are truly angels on earth. thank you for your effort and love of animals. well done. :)

[shonanicoll]

Seeing this has brightened my day no end. She deserves a very long, happy & safe retirement. Bless you <3

[feorag]

That was a joy to watch - an elephant doing what elephants like to do!!!

I'm sure her arthritis will improve a little now that she's got the opportunity to be more mobile - surely standing still tethered all day wouldn't have helped!

[RedRithUK]

Anne, your just so perfect and graceful. We all love you :)

[aussiehansi]

So happy to see her free at least
