From an early age, elephants are subjected to cruel and inhumane treatment all in the name of entertaining locals as well as tourist populations. The process to break an elephants will and spirit is in itself brutal and macabre. The internet is littered with hundreds of write ups on this issue...but from what I saw for myself (baby elephnats chained by their foot, etc) my heart really broke... we would never do this to a human. I plead with you to please help end this cruelty...
