Save the Animals 3 years, 1 month agoOn the 19th, I was returning to my town,and on the way we passed a huge wildlife sanctuary. I SAW A WILD ELEPHANT!! It was a little smaller than I an adult but way bigger than a baby. I think maybe it was a teenager or young adult. He or she was in the jungle but quite out and very near to me. But still,there were a lot of leaves so he/she was…[Read more]

Protect The Earth+ 3 years, 1 month agoHi, 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, meant keep you posted.

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]

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. 😔
