elephants have emotions that are not so far from the human's...if this human nature, as i call it, continues...in decades they'll be extinct!

These elephants are forced to work in the higher mountains of Laos. Mainly carrying very heavy loads of tree trunks. Laos mostly exports wood to Thailand and the terrain is very tough and too expensive to have machinery operated. Therefore elephants are being used. Thailand has depleted most of it's forrest and now Laos is doing the same. The elephants work very hard for about 5 hours a day. They refuse to work any longer.

These elephants are being forced to work very hard carrying wooden logs around the jungle. Very sad life for them.
