Hypocrite people shout here, let elephant be in peace. Many of them maybe live nice life in some skyscraper in BKK, they hug only tree what see in own palcony. They opinion is give nature space, but dont watch mirror ! That place where they live has been wild nature place also! They can live in "concrete jungle" but normal farmers should not disturb elephant's! I have experience what elephants do when one herd attack in Mrs. rubber farm. And those elephant's are not wild life "free " elephants! Those elephants was growing in people's home for tourist purpose. People let those free in mountain coz they dont had enough money to feed them. Those elephant's place is not there where farmers work, place where never have been elephant's before!
Not all is only black and white! Definitely not in Thailand news!
