Because this elephant has special place in the hearts of Keralites that's why this elephant is treated like that & this elephants name is " thechikotukavu ramachandran"

True, usually people are told to keep a certain distance, don't know which temple or festival this is though. And if the elephant isn't treated well, you picked a bad day to visit. They have been replacing elephants with robotic ones recently
It truly looks happy to be acknowledged seemingly no signs of discomfort nor distress it looks like it likes the attention 😂 what a miraculous creatire
The region the Greeks invaded (Punjab, Northwest India) is more arid and less rainforest like, hence less elephants. While facing heavy casualties, Alexander was said to have won the war with Porus, but Porus and his kingdom was tiny. Northwest India also happens to be the region with the least wildlife and animals integrated into warfare, both then and today. There was good reason they did not go further into India, as the empires beyond the Indus Valley were larger and had hundreds of elephants each. The Greeks made the right choice in following the Indus Tributaries to the sea.
*FOR THE FOREIGN PEOPLE IN THE COMMENT SECTION* first of all, this a sacred hindu temple and not any plaza or anything This elephant is not violent or captive, its a sacred elephant and its treated properly with respect, as it resembles god.

What do you mean not captive? That animal is captive unless its living in a jungle. Im an indian hindu, that animal is definitely uncomfortable.

Hardly, show me an animal that isn't eating life. It's simply how our ecosystem works, we could still appreciate life and not harm or kill life that we don't have to. Whether you eat plant life or animal life, you have to consume life to live. Do you appreciate the forests? I suppose you're a hypocrite as well since you eat plant life then defend things like the rainforest.
Many people there also eat animals in Kerala. It’s not about that. This is a part of our Indian civilisation, we tamed elephants and used them in battle.
Here’s some fun facts: elephants are sacred in India and are considered a cultural icon: Incarnation of Lord Ganesha Hindus believe that elephants are the living incarnation of Ganesha, the elephant-headed Hindu god of wisdom, prosperity, and beginnings. Ganesha is said to remove obstacles and bestow good fortune. Symbolism Elephants are associated with power, loyalty, fertility, and peace. They are also associated with water and rainfall, and their shape, size, and color are said to symbolize clouds. Religious festivals Elephants are used in religious festivals and temples. Artwork Elephants are often depicted in Hindu and Buddhist artwork, sometimes being worshipped or with a deity. Rock reliefs Elephants are depicted in Indian rock reliefs, such as the 7th-century Descent of the Ganges at Mahabalipuram. Home decor Statues of elephants are placed in homes to bring good luck, protection, and other benefits. In ancient times, elephants were used in warfare, and the more elephants a person had, the more power they had. However, in 2003, India banned the buying of elephants. While the law is not always enforced, the population of captive elephants is decreasing.
We used to use elephants for war, traveling and celebrations. It's very funny that people from west commenting stupid assumptions ... I bet they never even seen a elephant their lifetime
Just imagine if he wasn't a slave and lived in his natural environment, he could make more babies and have even bigger ones in the future. Nope look at our captive! We train him with hooks!
These elephants are raised and cared for by temples. They are trained to handle noise and crowds, but the mahout would be nearby to make sure it doesn't panic.
People complain, people protest about everything but the Indian people celebrate everyone and anything, thanks to these great people 🙏 I could go on and on, they cook the best Chinese food people ❤😂
