A Journey with Elephants By Greg Vogt – Conservation Guardians
Chapter 1: The awakening
Thandora – part 3
Moral dilemma
It was at that moment that I knew my life was about to change. The moment I reported that I knew a plan was going down to take young elephants from their mothers to enter the tourism industry, I would be targeted. I knew that at some stage I was going to report the facts that I knew of and that hell would follow this. I would be accused, threatened, and emotionally assaulted by the culprits when they found out that I was the whistleblower.
This one simple example is representative of how some of the places get wild elephants into captive environments.
Not all of them, but some of them.
