Nonetheless, elephants were also caught and bound for amusement purposes.
One of these sad elephants is the incredible Thai bull elephant named Strap Bai. The glorious elephant has been well known throughout the nation and has engaged sightseers for 40 years.
Lek Chailert, the organizer behind The Elephant Asylum, advocates for the well-being and salvage of elephants. He shares the tale of Strap Bai in his Facebook posts and recounts the account of this unimaginable animal.
