Description
A leg of a young elephant, which was chained in order to attract visitors... like me... unfortunately.I don't pretend to be a bleeding heart, but still, if I had the chance, I would spare myself visiting such a place.
Somehow this photo connects to my earlier one , though they were shot in different locations and different circumstances.
Koh Phangan, Thailand.

It's a real sad photo.. it's ridiculous how humans treat animals sometimes.. it just makes you want to kill the people who've done that!
I believe that sad photos have a quite different power... and this one is very powerful.
Great shot, awful situation..

stuff like that always makes me so angry that I want to cry I wish I could punch these people who think it's entertaining or acceptable for living things to be treated like that. the world needs to wake up to it's insanity.

I am pretty sure there are some appropriate laws in countries of Europe and N. America, which prevent the most of this barbarian act by people. Unfortunately in less developed countries, like Thailand, there is no enforcement at all...

it's very sad. any living thing should only ever be contained for the protection of itself or another. it's repulsive how some people think that other creatures don't think or feel or yearn for a better life..

Thank you very much.
I agree with you. Indeed, we are a dirty selfish race... And that's exactly the cause of our fatality...

Fascinatingly morbid. This is what photo's are about. Not the cuteness or the joy, but the sheer emotional shock one picture can bring.
Well done.
