Guess it looked worse than it was because if it really hurts them they can act quite furious

my husbands one started bleeding at the back of his head whilst he was riding him. i nearly cried at seeing how they were tortured. i want all tourists to boycott this type of cruelty!

hi i have to third that statement. we are going trekking in chiang mai in a weeks time and i am going to only go on a trek if it doesnt involve elephant trekking. like many tourists, my husband and i made a huge mistake of going on a tour on our honeymoon in egypt. including in it was an camel ride. the camels were incredibly skinny, beaten for not reason by the owners and they have scars all over their bodies of where the robes have rubbed them roar. they also had skin infections etc.

Yeah, that's the "ankus" or bullhook. They're used by all elephant mahouts (trainers) who are too lazy to train and use an elephant without one (about 99% of all trainers). Anyone who uses one will claim that it's "impossible" to manage a pachyderm without it, because they're taught that way. But at the Elephant Nature Park in Thailand they're developing new techniques that use rewards and compassion, not domination and intimidation. Their goal is to demonstrate that the ankus is not needed.

gmvgreg: Did you witness cruelty on your trek? Often you can't see it, but the elephants have sores underneath the benches when the mahouts are too lazy to remove them for days.
Lots of people go on elephant treks not knowing the cruelty of it until they actually ride them, and see the mahouts hooking them with an ankus, or the babies trying to keep up with their mothers, or any number of things.
