Maybe we could dress that elephant up in a nice suit and let him run the Country... I think it would be a great improvement.

As I understand it, the elephants at this conservation center are not forced to make music or paint. The ones that do, do so voluntarily, although they do take direction from their manhouts. They are for the most part rescued animals and are treated quite well.

@SharedJoy Right on! It's obvious the elephants don't understand what they're being made to do. I'd rather see them happy being elephants, and not being forced to go through motions for tourists. On the other hand, Thailand needs income to support their population of elephants. I'd be willing to pay a tourist tax or contribute to that some other way -- if I were sure it were really for elephants.

It’s a cruel way to earn money.
These people should be put in force labor.
So they know how the elephants feel during the training.
For tourists, please don't watch and spend your money for this show.
By doing so, you support the cruelty of these people do against the elephants.
Now if only they could train those elephants to upload HD quality videos....

@GaragebandandBeyond touché, GarageBandandBeyond... I pulled this video from the internet in like 1999 when the net was a barren wasteland of gifs and quicktime videos were a treasure to behold. Sorry about the low quality. I'll bring my Canon 5d MkII next time I go to Thailand.
