Beasts of burden, island style

Nose hair, anyone?

Nose hair, anyone?

It was actually a rather sad visit to the Forestry Department elephant training camp on Havelock Island. Elephants chained to trees wasn’t exactly what I was expecting. Wondering what PETA thinks.

But this guy was rather frisky, even if the exposure was problematic.

      That makes me feel sick and reminds me of a zoo we visited in 1990. Elephant chained inside a concrete cubicle. I still haven’t recovered, and I’m sure he hasn’t either, poor fellow. Wonder what can be done. But it’s still a cool picture.

      If you were here, I’d spit on you. Just because I could. Happy New Year sargin’ buddy.
