If I can’t find any laws they’re not following I will talk to the trainers about the bullock and…[Read more]
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!
