Photographs taken from temple festivals in Kerala. When these elephants are decorated to please human eye, who care about the pain they are going through??
6. Another elephant who’s fur (hair) in the tail is
completely ripped off..! See the multiple bone
fractures in the tail..
7. The elephant fur on the tail is used for making
ornaments, jewels and some decorative items.
Selling, buying and making anything from it are still
legal..!! Mahouts and elephant owners sell it for money;
they just don't care about the pain of the animal........!
8. In these photos, you can see the skin from the
leg of the elephant is gone of heavy
chains, leaving the elephant with endless pain…
