We have read about the Dolphins and the cruelty, I have written how terrible Phuket Zoo, I have cuddled a tiger and I have been elephant riding.
But I was not prepared for the comments on the post by Tourism Thailand of someone riding an elephant..
- If they had bullhooks, which I suspect they did looking at that elephant's head then I would not call that a "respected environment".
- @csanchiz yup just a quick Google search of this "camp" pulls up pictures of the Mahouts with bull hooks and tugging the elephants around by their ears. This is not a respectful place for the elephant and I don't know how you could call the responsible tourism when there are other sanctuaries nearby where the elephants are not treated like this.
A wedding that I was involved...
Next time have a look at the elephant carefully - this includes me as well.
