Veterinarians Rush to Rescue Injured Baby Elephants Caught in Snares in Chanthaburi

It is not clear if the snares were targetting the elephants. In fact, they probably weren't. If they were wire snares they were probably after an animal about the girth of a baby elephant's trunk such as a civet cat, wild boar, etc. All protein for the pot.

if you have the 'gentle giant' to visit inside your house or eat your crops, even illegally planted, then i guess some people want to protect that... maybe there are just too many of them and thais and culling, even rabies dogs

Snares are indiscriminate methods of catching prey... unfortunately they sometimes catch the wrong prey .. such as inquisitive elephants
