Falling or jumping off elephants is common these days.

Stop elephant riding. Animal cruelty. Most of the monks have rented their temple elephants for safaris. make an inquiry.

Was it five grown ups, the iron contraption, plus the mahout on an elephant back?

We need to be kinder towards these animals.

Earning money should be done with kindness as well.

I feel sorry for the Toruists, but damn good for those who are making that poor animals suffer. Ele rides should have some kind of rules. Iron bar is unacceptable, 5 people unacceptable - it is a living being too.. have a heart. Max should be 2 grown ups and may be a kid that the ele could handle - I say ban ele rides all together since our people do not know where to draw the line and given the opportunity wil misuse putting the animal in jepordy.
