Nah - leave them alone. Humans have caused enough damage to these beautiful mammals already.

This is an animal sanctuary in Zimbabwe where they are protected. They saved this orphaned elephant, because if they hadn’t, he would have died in the wild. It’s not wrong to try to care for the animals left in the destructive wake of poachers. No one is whipping and torturing this elephant to do this for people; he’s just a goofy, friendly fella.

Not every animal video is depicting some kind of abuse . . .

I would encourage you to do some research on this elephant, why he is where he is, and what his life is like . . . BEFORE making sanctimonious comments online for internet points 🤣✌🏼
