ORIGINAL Elephant Painting
BackCan your elephant paint? Watch this elephant, rescued from abusive treatment in Burma, now paint a beautiful image of an elephant. You'll be amazed at how her talent unfolds as she carefully completes each stroke. Her mahout talks to her throughout the process as his gentle touch gives her confidence. She focuses on her work and seems to enjoy the approval of the audience and, of course, the sugar cane and banana treats. All of her training has been reward based.
So touched by their horrific backgrounds and loving personalities, ExoticWorldGifts.com now supports, "Starving Elephant Artisans" by selling their paintings so they can continue to have a new life in Thailand.
Some Thai elephant experts believe that the survival of the Asian elephant species will most likely depend on the good treatment of the elephants in well managed privately owned elephant camps. All of us would prefer that all of the elephants be free to be in the wild. For many reasons, that is not possible at this time.

omg...all the ignorant comments of this so called abuse are crap. Not all humans are like those 3rd world circuses that PETA films. Elephants are very smart creatures and if they were abused, they would retaliate and turn on the people working here. Its been seen before...

If Elephants had two trunks as we have two arms, i have little doubt that we would be sharing the planet with another sentient species :-]
