Poor girl. So happy and relieved that she is now free at ENP. My thanks to Chantelle and Matt, and of course to Lek. Thanks for your video, Sike. Blessings to all who care for suffering elephants.
That poor elephant must be in so much pain. I am so glad that the world does have real humans in it that are helping these elephants. Thank you so much.
Ihr seid göttliche Wesen und versteht das alles miteinander verbunden ist.... Das war immer unsere Aufgabe, auf diesen Planeten zu achten ....aber das verstehen die meisten leider nicht... Ich liebe euch 🧡☮🌴🐘💚
The resident elephants wasted no time in welcoming DAO to her forever home, Elephants are so wonderful and soulful - they knew immediately what she had been through adn stepped up to welcome her home and with in their herd, incredible,
Rita Stevenson yes but why was she dragged away from the herd at the end on a chain. He dragged her away on a chain & you could see by her face she felt as though she'd been cheated & tricked. I thought what a cruel ending
@@rebekahlegionsundaygirljou5543 - Maybe she needed to be treated by a vet or monitored because of her poor health? That's not a large chain and the mahout wasn't hurting her. If you do some research, you'll find that this is a very good rescue organization. By the way, I don't blame you for your concern, but I've watched numerous videos and read several articles about this sanctuary.
I wondered the same thing about the chain. How has the elephant been able to bear walking on the hip/leg? It looks extremely painful. Blessings to the rescuers! Please, only good times from now on 4 this brave elephant
Coming off the truck this poor girl is probably thinking "what fresh hell do THESE humans have in mind for me?!". Little does she know what a wonderful surprise Lek has is in store for her.
In many ways, it's too late because of her severely crippled body buy not too late to enjoy the quality of life she still has in her. It breaks my heart because you know she suffers with each step she takes. Humans can be incredibly cruel and self-serving!! Please give her extra time in the water to take the weight off her body. I pray she enjoys the peace she now has.... Thank you Lek!!
That's first 2 seconds at the beginning of the video where the elephant walked cripple shocks me. I didn't finish the video and go straight to writing up this comment. Hope he or she is cured. Poor thing. Break my heart.
I JUST BELIEVE THAT THEIR SHARING STORIES OF THEIR PAST HISTORY OF PAIN AND ABUSE OR NEGLECT!!!... THANK GOD FOR YOU RESCUING THIS PRECIOUS , GENTLE GIANT... GOD'S CREATURES!!!😍🐘🐘🐘😃🙋🙏👍🇺🇸
thank you very you and everybody to help and support for rescue this elephant. I'm Southenmost of Thailand near Malaysia very happiness and glad everybody. Thx You
why don't these people have to go to jail for animal abuse,,,,,,,,,,,,,they probably just go and get some more elephants and do the same thing over again
Better Solution Avoid Elephants for treks & any entertainment with an Elephant in it. Research & find legit Sanctuaries & contribute your service there
@1:57 my heart is breaking for her. I have had 4 knee replacements due to injuries. One done on my left knee the other 3 were done on my right knee within 1 & 1/2 years because all 3 failed almost immediately for various reasons. That all started about 10 years ago. After the 3rd try to replace my knee there have been no more efforts to do so because so much of the surrounding structures are now too damaged to support another prosthesis. So for the last 6 years I have been virtually chairbound. I can use a rollator to walk short distances in my home but that’s it. There is constant pain on some level. I say all that to say whenever I see these many elephants with leg/hip/knee injuries, usually caused by logging or trekking my heart just bleeds for them. They are so much larger than I so I know the weight the dysfunctional joint must bear is extreme. They were forced to continue these forced labor jobs in spite of their current and worsening extremely painful injuries. Some times for decades. And though they are about as intelligent as we are, feel the same physical pains as well as emotional pains that we do, the fact that we don’t speak their language allows us to turn a blind eye to their horrible pain. My heart breaks for them. I pray they can find peace at ENP or another ethical sanctuary.
While logging is illegal, I don't think owning an elephant is illegal as of yet. So pretty much the owners can do whatever they please. That's why rescuers have to buy the elephants and release them to sanctuaries. But this isn't perfect either because the owners go and buy another. It's a vicious circle.
She can barely walk, she's still chained, is sick with diarrhea, and still that a$$hole is clawing her with a bullhook. I'm so glad she was rescued from this appalling situation.
Dao Thong is such a beautiful soul! How can people let this leg/hip injury continue without fixing it! Come on humans we are better than this!!! Help out this elephant!!
Has anyone heard any new update on pang Dao the elephant? I saw the video Argo films made on her but that was 7 years ago. I'm just curious if she's been rescued since...
I don't think Lek would be happy to know how the mahouts who were trying to get her to and into the truck were using those horrible hooks on her left ear. At least she will never experience that painful humiliation again. I hope those mahouts are never used again, either.
Yees, this is sad see this elephant have problems and also shit just when the men push on him for enter in the box truck. Anyway, life is like that for all of us. We eat and after we defecate, elephant too. As they eat greenery and branchs of trees, they must defecate that stuff. Life is life. God blezss all elephant in Sri Lanka, Asia and Africa of course.
DISGUSTING TORTURE OF ELEPHANTS ALL OVER INDIA. ITS UNBELIEVABLE!! IT STILL GOES NO. THOUSANDS OF ELEPHANTS CHAINED IN PEOPLES BACK YARDS OR IN KARRALS , BEATEN, PRODDED WITH BULL HOOKS, ISOLATED, ITS HORRIFIC, If not for the wonderful people who save them one by one they would all be gone soon. We can't forget the thousands tortured every day by Indians who chain them and think they have the right to "own" them.
I cry happy tears with every rescue. Thank you all that saved these beautiful animals.
Heartbreaking 😢. The suffering that magnificent beauty has gone through. Well done to her rescuers 👏👏👏👏
Poor girl. So happy and relieved that she is now free at ENP. My thanks to Chantelle and Matt, and of course to Lek. Thanks for your video, Sike. Blessings to all who care for suffering elephants.
These are my kind of people! Filled with compassion and bravery. YOU make the world better for all, one soul at a time
That poor elephant must be in so much pain. I am so glad that the world does have real humans in it that are helping these elephants. Thank you so much.
Heartbreaking to watch. I hope and pray that poor animal is getting the love and blessings she's been denied so long.

I watch this video every couple of weeks, still brings tears every time. Thanks Sike

It was so beautiful to see. Crying happy tears
Thanks for the people who involved in the rescue of this great giant gentle creature may God give them all strength and wealth

Little does she know what a wonderful surprise Lek has is in store for her.
Poor baby I hope she finds more happiness than she has ever known.
Bless all the people who help the elephants.
feeling very touched because there are still many good people.

It's never too late to improve the remainder of a life - even yours - until the life has ended.
These creatures deserve the best care possible , and it looks like there getting it more and more .
I sobbed when I saw her injured leg. I sobbed when the ellies so lovingly welcomed her. Thank you All 🐘🐘🐘.
So whose next?!!!
Beautiful...Thank you all for rescuing her. ❤ I pray that she is still doing well. 🙏❤
Elephants are good people too! Love them!
It is so sad to see all the pain an elephant goes through to only have the ending be spent in a dream world.
thank s to the people for saving the elephant god bless you all.
Hip injury. Usually comes from logging or force breeding.
Amazing how they are still capable of joy & forgiveness despite what nasty humans have put them through.
I didn't realize I had tears streaming down my face.😂💝😭
Some familys could learn from these animals. Compassion...forgivness..etc.
That's first 2 seconds at the beginning of the video where the elephant walked cripple shocks me. I didn't finish the video and go straight to writing up this comment. Hope he or she is cured. Poor thing. Break my heart.

God bless you guys for all you do for these wonderful creatures
Beautiful marvellous I haven’t got a words !!!!❤️❤️❤️🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘
Great people. Wonderful job guys. Love you all as a kind humans.💖💖💖💖💖
why is it that the media doesn't cover this tragedy,probaly isn't popular to them
They have to hide these animals, what breaks most hearts is not the same. Some people just want to kill. Maybe I'm wrong but I don't think so.
Amazing !! Thank you so much for doing this . May the Universe bless you in abundance for your efforts! Great work!! :)
Ai hyvänen aika että on ollut paha toi elefantin tilanne! Hienoa nähdä teidän tekevän tätä työtä! Huippua työtä:)!!! Suomi!!!
May God protect these beautiful innocent animals from Evil humans 🐘💔😭❤️🙏

Pink.purplish eyes on an elephant.WOW.That is awesome.
Are the vets going to fix her hip?
I hope the people who did this has to pay the price

That's why rescuers have to buy the elephants and release them to sanctuaries. But this isn't perfect either because the owners go and buy another. It's a vicious circle.
They will just get another elephant.
god will take care of people that abuse his creatures and the reward for good guys will be heavenly.
Were they able to repair her hip? It had to be painful.
She can barely walk, she's still chained, is sick with diarrhea, and still that a$$hole is clawing her with a bullhook. I'm so glad she was rescued from this appalling situation.

Elefante está sempre sorrindo.!Obrigado de coração.
J'adore.. et le gars qui pousse l'éléphant au derrière pour l'aider à monter ds le camion, mdr. X) .

You go you beauty...
That made me cry even harder Heather x
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😢😢😢😋..Thank you so much...
loved the video, but saw something disturbing at the end of video where the elephant had thick wire on front bottom of foot was being pulled WHY???
this is disgraceful how the elephants are treated everywhere
Thank you
What's wrong with her right hind-leg? Was it ever fixed?
Your a good man.
What can be done about her hip/leg? There seems to be a dislocation or something. Can they help her?
Please get the chains off!
AMEN
Why the mahout has a bullhook ? It s horrible
I don't think Lek would be happy to know how the mahouts who were trying to get her to and into the truck were using those horrible hooks on her left ear. At least she will never experience that painful humiliation again. I hope those mahouts are never used again, either.
Why is she still in chains? 😪
It reminded me of summer camp as a kid. Looked like an elephant camp out
sudden removal of chain cause confution to elephant
Pls save more of them pls
Can't they fix her leg?
God bless you all who help💖
Happy end 💖
what happen to her back legs?
"Wow I smell bananas. Cam I have some?"
"Oh ya, help yourself... they're in my butt."
Why does the skin get discolored
Let me meet the people who did this. My justice will last on their skin for life.
Amen.
Hahaha
Agreed 👍 cruel scum who do this to these beautiful 😍 animals.
Preach!! Amen 🩵🌟
Wow very nice so love
Elephants should not be mistreated
