Elephant Is Finally Free After Years Of Giving Rides

Lots of people ride elephants because they love animals — but if they knew this, they wouldn't.

To sponsor the ongoing care of Gaew Ta, the rescued elephant, you can support the Phuket Elephant Sanctuary. Very special thanks to ElephantNews and Wildlife Friends Foundation Thailand.
