Do right by the elephants and send them to a sanctuary and let them their lives in peace w/o harm and pain. Is it is the right thing to do!! Animals are not ours to dominate over. Just b/c we do dominate over them, doesn't make it right! Animals are NOT our property!!! I agree w/ Alicia and Meredith!!!!!!!

The bottom line and the priority is the welfare of the animal. I'm afraid too often it's money. Why should they continue to suffer because of human ignorance?
