When I saw this post at the top of the "Trending" section in animals I honestly rolled my eyes. Usually when I see these posts whether thats here or on other social media platforms it is complete spam of people riding the elephants saying how they believe they are well treated etc. What was a complete breath of fresh air was actually opening your post to reading the words you have written. Thank you for educating other members of the community in the right way and especially about this amazing establishment. Thank you :)

The top is actually provided by the Sanctuary! Everyone had to wear one. Trust me, I was tempted to sneak it into my bag :P

@amavi you can get them in random places in Chiang Mai, Thailand! I know you're probably not near here...but maybe on the internet. Maybe I'll just send one haha. I bought one similar to this last week... I got it in a motorcycle shop that also had some clothes for sale. How random! haha

Wow, what an experience it must be to be surrounded by so many elephants that are actually happy and not forced to be there and pose for the photo. Good job on researching and creating awareness. Awesome shot too.

Man this post is excellent. I never had a chance to see this animal in person , but you're post just brought the desire in me to actually do it one day. I too think that riding elephants is awful and a complete abuse of their nature, so this post for me is full of positivity. Beautiful creatures and a beautiful picture, keep posting Jen !

Thank you for not supporting those establishments that abuse animals for a profit! I know it's a very lucrative business opportunity for a lot of folks and many people will mindlessly go book one of those tours where they get to ride the elephants for fun and as much as I would like the government to be involved in controlling those businesses, unfortunately that won't happen. So I will simply choose to not give them my money and take my business elsewhere. Thank you for doing the same!

I like elephants, although sometimes they can seem very docile and calm, at times they can get violent and out of control.

I am alway amazed at the pure display of arrogance (really ignorance) by us humans in dealing with animals. There ought to be mutual respect - this means just let the animals be! do not presume they are happier in your cages. Thanks for being a part of the sensible group taking care of the rescued elephants.

It is gratifying to know of people who feel in their own flesh the abuses suffered by many animals, propitiated by those who supposedly have a higher rationale (man) and somehow contribute their grain of sand for these injustices to diminish ..... These people do deserve to be decorated and encourage them to receive the relevant help and so our animals live as they deserve.

If you're looking for a new book, you should read The Elephant Whisperer. It's a true story about how a guy in South Africa gained the trust of elephants who were in danger of being killed. Such a touching story. Aren't elephants the best animals? I remember when I went to Chiang Mai a few years ago, I visited an elephant sanctuary. I got to feed and bathe my elephant and spent the whole day with her.
I even still remember her name. MaeBhuTa.
They're such gentle creatures and getting to see them roam free and not exploited made me really happy.
