      Deborah Tawadros, both of you dont know what is happening here. This is an orphanage for injured and abandoned elephants. The new ones are put in chains until they learn the regular routine. If not for this place all those elephants would have died in the wild, which is a hefty loss considering the low numbers of the Sri Lankan elephants.

      There is a point where putting them down is the more humane thing to do. This elephant must have lost it's limb quite early in life. It put such strain on it's remaining front leg that it grew crooked. The relieving posture it uses to walk sends shivers down my spine. Making this animal walk up and down this dangerous slope is cruel. Now imagine 40+ years of this torture.

    To all the people giving uninformed negative comments:
    These elephants are from the elephant orphanage. These are orphaned, sick, hurt or over domesticated elephants, who are unable to be rehabilitated into the wild. They spend their lives here, fed, treated and cared for. The elephants here get taken to the nearby river every day to bathe. Elephants shouldn’t just be washed with a hose, it makes them happy to go into the water. The elephant orphanage doesn’t have direct access to the river, so they’re walked through public roads (which gets closed to traffic at this time every day, just for them) to the river.
    These are not pets, these gentle giants are also several tonnes of pure power, which can crush a person without much effort. Some of these are very dangerous, so they are chained, so that they can’t run amok and cause great death and destruction. Keep in mind that they are still taken to the river, with their 100 or so strong herd by only a handful of people. If one elephant runs amok, the whole herd can stampede, and many men, women and children might be killed within minutes.
    The people who are being labeled in the comments as their ‘abusers’ and those ‘working them’ like ‘livestock’ are infact their overworked and underfunded caretakers. The mahout sticks they carry, their only defense, can be hurtful to the elephants ears, can’t cause much damage. They are not hit by the stick, and in any case, the elephant skin is tough and several inches thick, so even if they get hit by a stick, they’ll barely feel it.

    Many ignorant comments. A few wise ones. This an orphanage for neglected , abandoned , and infirm elephants. This is in Srilanka. Govt supported. A vast open forest forest for grazing. Twice a day they make a sojourn to the river for drinks, bath and cooling down. Because it is routine , elephants don't seem to be excited about the water. Only those wandering elephants that sight the water body after a long time show excitement , play , splashing water and mud. These elephants are well cared for , regularly washed and scrubbed. And they are not skinny. Some elephants have chains , yes , but not hobbled. May be for good reason. And they carry sticks , bull hooks , standard minimum equipment incase of need. Elephants are social animals. Segregating that handicapped elephant is cruel. He must be happy with the company. If possible make a visit or send a contribution instead of lip service.

      To my knowledge, all of these elephants were rescued from wild when they were injured or misplaced from their natural habitat. These giants were taken to this orphanage when they were very small. The rate of dying of elephants in natural habitat increasing very rapidly. That is the main reason for establishing these orphanage. At least they have someone to take care of them. After them cured, these animals are relocate in natural habitat. Don't be a keyboard worrier, and don't talk non sense if you don't know the real story.

    Shame on these awful Sri Lankan people for holding these beautiful elephants captive and controlled...chaining a few of the elephants, riding them and using sharp poke sticks...they all look underweight and fearful of the humans with poke sticks. The disabled one with the missing foot is heartbreaking to witness his struggle. So sad and an awful example of humans being their worst to God's majestic creatures. Shameful...I know 2 people who visited this so called "orphanage" and they said it is a wretched place and an awful life for these animals....they should be allowed to live free.

      Hi bdv3360, this is a Elephant orphanage. Sri Lankans don't torture animals. In year 1880, there were 100,000 Elephants in Sri Lanka, now only 3,000. Sri Lanka, then Ceylon was a British colony. Sri Lankan Elephants were killed by British as a sport. One Britisher killed over 1000 Elephants. Torturing animals is a very European thing. 70% of Sri Lankans are Buddhists, they will never kill animals or torture them, it is in their DNA.

Elephants shouldn’t just be washed with a hose, they need to go into the water. The elephant orphanage doesn’t have direct access to the river, so they’re walked here every day.

Every day they took the elephants to the river for shower as you can see the elephants are not aggressive because those guys treated them well. Actually they protect the elephants from clandestine organisations that uses them for riding tourists and other type of abuses.

      They don't care for those elephants, you can tell there is no love or respect there. The elephants aren't even enjoying the water, they know all the men want are tourist dollars. Compare that scene to any reputable elephant rescue organisation where all the elephants are healthy and happy, these elephants are neither healthy nor happy. The biggest red flag is riding them. No reputable rescue will ever permit their elephants to ever be ridden again, EVER!

      To my knowledge, all of these elephants were rescued from wild when they were injured or misplaced from their natural habitat. These giants were taken to this orphanage when they were very small. The rate of dying of elephants in natural habitat increasing very rapidly. That is the main reason for a orphanage. After them cured, these animals are relocate in natural habitat. Don't be a keyboard worrier, and don't talk non sense if you don't know the real story.

I can't visit such a country and spend a penny knowing that that money contributes to the torment of an animal ..and to come back for a stinking beast with a human. In your country, 90% of the people are very cruel, stinky, soulless, miserable ..., animals that are exploited and tortured to the maximum by humans. And these poor elephants are very tormented .. I have friends who have visited this country , these elephants from this so-called "sanctuary" ... friends who saw how these elephants are treated, how they are imposed with those iron hooks .. how they are exploited ... there are so many clips ... anyway my friends don't they will never visit this country again, the countries where animals are tormented and exploited these so-called sanctuaries where elephants are tortured, tortured, exposed for entertainment, for various rituals and religious holidays, to hard work ...
      In places where animals are not really exposed and tortured ..there are no chains, people do not have those metal hooks.
      I would like people in your countries to become human, to become civilized, empathetic ... and to care about poor animals ... because they are wonderful creatures! I don't understand why you are so evil and cruel!
      But that's how most people in this world are ...
      I hope for a better world where animals and people live together and people love them, to appreciate them as they deserve, to live together in a better and more beautiful world, without poverty, without cruelty!

I don’t understand why nothing is being done to help that Magnificent Elephant. There is a man with a stick hurrying him along, does he or the others have no empathy for the beautiful Elephant, he looks so scared. The pain it must be in is breaking my heart. Why can’t you put him/her on some kind of platform with wheels and pull him done there to the water instead of causing such Agony to make him/her walk all that way. It feels like abuse to me. If you are truly trying to help DON’T leave out the one at this moment that needs your help the most. There has to be a way...PLEASE. 😪😪😪😪 I LOVE them so so very much. They are Gentle Giants with too much Evil surrounding them. I’m so sad 💔💔💔.

      Actually, I've learned that the stick the handlers use for training and guiding elephants when used properly, are only meant to help guide and nudge them in the right direction and are never supposed to be used to poke them or harm them in any way. That said there are still cruel people in the world harming elephants. However, I think these men working for the elephant orphanage are handling them with a great deal of respect. The truth is, they are very fortunate elephants. I'd support this group in a heartbeat. BTW, the elephants are very aware of how much damage they could do. They choose not to. I'm certain too, they are aware that these men have been helping them, which is why they are so docile and well behaved.

      Hi Rachele, I am deliriously addicted to elephants everywhere. I read, research and am watching videos of elephants all the time. Every day, actually. I can't seem to stop. I have gotten to know their body language quite well. I'm not sure how many elephant orphanages there are in India, but they are a real blessing compared to what would happen to them if left to foraging where they were, as the human population there is pushing them out of their natural habitat and people are killing them to save their crops. I don't remember where I learned about the stick but, as you can see, the men are not having to use them whatsoever. Those fellows you see in chains are newcomers and are chained specifically to protect the other elephants as well as themselves and the people until they learn the ropes of their new home. It also may be that they are males in musth (Their testosterone levels are something like 60% higher during this period when they want to mate). They can become VERY aggressive and quite dangerous during this time and have been known to kill anything that gets in their way. So they have to be controlled. These elephants are very relaxed and enjoying a nice stroll to the river for a dip, which they LOVE. Hope this helps. :)
