While shooting a member of PETA has been present and an interview she admitted that the animal has been treated well. The scene in which the best was beaten was filmed with CGI Props. The animal was trained to make specific movements and expression with his head to make the idea that it was suffering pain. There is even a documentary made ​​about this this is available on DVD. These days you really can't get away with it when you mistreated animals in a film.

However I think it's disgusting to even pretend that animals are being mistreated in a movie.

In the meanwhile the totally sick Thai tradition of Phajaan (breaking an elephants mind by torture) is going on... http://helpthaielephants.com

The elephant population in Thailand has gone from 100 thousand to 2600. I simply posted the information so you could draw your owm comclusions. Most charaties like peta start out with the best of intentions then evolve into esposing the views of the largest financial contributer. Any abuse of an elephant for any reason is despicible, imho

The different information is confusing, this site gives a totally different impression and they look more reliable to me.

Even this is elephant abuse, it shows they really have no respect for the animals and for life in general.
