Elephants are forced to engage in dangerous clashes with humans – help now!

When the elephants at Tarzan Zerbini’s Circus are not forced to perform humiliating stunts, they are used for rides, photography and “extreme encounters” at a cost of $ 200 apiece at the Two Tails Ranch in Florida – activities that put both elephants and humans at risk … In fact, the circus and roadside zoo operators – Zerbinis – have a long history of dangerous attacks by elephants that have resulted in serious injury and at least one human death.

Elephants used for riding are taken from their distraught mothers in infancy, tied up and beaten with hooks and other tools designed to inflict pain. until their spirit breaks and they are willing to obey their “mentors” to avoid pain. Therefore, it is not surprising that elephants can lash out at them in a rage and have been involved in dozens of dangerous incidents. An elephant named Roxy at the Two Tails Ranch once stepped on a worker near Tarzan Zerbini’s circus and broke his pelvis. The visitor to the roadside zoo was also almost killed from an elephant named Raja when he pulled her to the lattice with his trunk, causing her lung to collapse, spleen damage, rib fractures, and peeling wounds — serious skin damage.

Left alone in their natural homes, elephants spend their days socializing, swimming, browsing, and playing. And, like all other people, they want and deserve the freedom to be themselves. Forcing elephants into dangerous confrontations with humans is an egregious form arrogance– discrimination based solely on species.

Urge Two Tails Ranch to send elephants to an accredited sanctuary where they will not be exploited.
