stop cruelty to Sri Lanka's temple elephants

Here’s what happens in Sri Lanka’s prominent BUDDHIST temples. They keep elephant slaves. These highly intelligent and sensitive animals live up to 80 years chained, forced into perahera pageants and finally, this is how they die. They never knew freedom. They never knew love and they lived completely isolated. This is at Raja Maya Viharaya, Kotte, Sri Lanka you can contact: Department of Wildlife Conservation,
