Yes it is absolutely appalling the way that humans treat Elephants and all animals really.... Especially when most animals- if not all animals are far more intelligent than the average human.
Great photos too by the way. Where were you when you took the photos?
Was that you riding the elephant in the 1st photo?
This photo I took at the end of last year, in the first photo is my friend. This location in Aceh. In my previous post, I also talked about this elephant. you can see it here, https://peakd.com/hive-127788/@arfa/elephants-and-humans-collaboration-in-my-province
