It’s truly heartbreaking for me to know the elephant is going through a horrific torture training which the elephant is mentally and physically broken, so that they become submissive and are ready for further training. The trainer inflicted a bloody bullhook wound behind an elephant’s ear flap which cause pain and puncture the skin. Despite its appearance, an elephant’s skin is as sensitive as humans’ skin. The sharp metal hook on the end of the bullhook causes bruises, punctures, and tears elephants’ skin easily and often.

They are my favourite animals beside giraffe, but how to stop them from being abuse?

We had our dinner at Tanta's. It probably have the best ambience of all the restaurants in Ao Nang Center. The service staff seemed very genuine in wanting their diners to feel comfortable and were always very polite and helpful. The Thai Fried Rice, Tom Yam Goong, Curry Chicken with Vegetables and Sweet and Sour Fish were all very delicious and very reasonable priced.

We had drinks and ice-cream at Kiatsch Cafe before we head back to the hotel after a long and tiring day.
