I thought about what you and one other Roots and Shoot group said about the issue, and I came with a plan. First I’ll spread awareness, like you said. After enough people are aware, I will look into the laws, and see if there’s any laws about it. If I can’t find any laws they’re not following I will talk to the trainers about the bullock and…[Read more]

Hi, I live in Austin, and there’s this place right outside of Austin that have these really amazing asian elephants, but there making them do tricks, and shows for people. All the trainers have a bullock in their hand, which they refer to as a “guide” for the elephants. I really want to help the elephants, but I’m not sure how. Any ideas???
Okay,first you’ve GOT to spread awareness to people and talk about it as much as possible and post it on social media. Once people know,the animal lovers will do all they can to save them. Try to raise money with some good people interested and try to help the elephants.
You can also join my group Refuse to Ride! Helping elephants.
Thanks so much, I’ll do that. I’ve had no ideas on the issue, and you posted.

Sorry,I meant project, not group.
Great idea!! There is a group called wildlife sos (they have offices in USA too). They help elephants so maybe they can help. You can contact them on Facebook or email them. Good luck!

Hmm… Are they hurting the elephants with the bullock? That sounds like a problem. If they are hurting the elephants, there may be laws in Texas against that. You might be able to report them, but only if they’re breaking the law. Other than that you might just talk to the trainers about them and learn some more about what’s happening. Maybe you…[Read more]

Dear Ecopat, I am so glad you have ideas! But unfortunately there is no humane way to train them. 😔

Hi Emerson! Thank you for sharing. I know. It can be so hard seeing things that seem wrong to us and which are upsetting. It makes me feel a bit better though knowing there are people like you around who care and want to make change.
Does the place have a website? Sometimes there is an email address or a ‘Contact Us’ section on the website. I bet…[Read more]
Thanks so much! I’ll do that.

If you can, grow a garden that’s a great way to help the environment. Also create, as we like to call it a pollination station. For bees, butterflies, and all pollinators. You add milkweed, hummingbird feeders, and flowers that attract bees+.

Hi guys, we have a gas stop near (like REALLY near) to our house/neighborhood. The guy who owns the place we know because it’s so close and we know his name and everything. Anyways, he has some back space behind his building that has a few trees and no grass and I really wanted to turn it into something, but I don’t what. I was thinking we could…[Read more]
That would be really fun! You can turn a space into a wildlife place and plant flowers, plants, trees, etc. I was also thinking of planting a garden. However, I live in an apartment so I can’t. But in a week, I’m actually MOVING to a HOUSE in California (San Francisco) so I might also be able to make a garden. Thats a great idea to help wildlife! 🙂
Oh, cool! Also thanks for the input!
Do you live in Texas? If so, I’ll ask my mom if we can meet at the place. (If it’s near lol) If not, I’ll see what I can do with my backyard (it’s the biggest place where I wouldn’t be tresspassing).
I live in Texas.
Can you send the address to me? I might be able to meet there.

Well, is everyone ready to start writing there letter?
Emerson posted a new activity comment 1 year, 12 months ago
Sounds like a plan! 😉
Also I think we could start with Target, and then move on to other stores, what do you guys think?
Emerson posted a new activity comment 1 year, 12 months ago
Yeah I really like that idea! Are we still going to write to Target?
Emerson posted a new activity comment 1 year, 12 months ago
Yeah, good idea. Do you guys want to write to Target, then other stores after that, or just write to all stores at the same time? Well not all stores. 🙂
