In Thailand, a herd of 38 Asian elephants is in imminent danger. They could soon be sold into the Chinese circus and logging industry. But nonprofit Gentle Giants is coming to the rescue.
After the COVID-19 pandemic halted tourism, these majestic creatures finally enjoyed a life free from chains and cruelty. But their days of freedom are coming to an end.
Activists have just days to save these elephants from returning to the hellish world of forced labor. In partnership with Save Elephant Foundation, Gentle Giants is hosting an urgent campaign called the Gentle Giants Stay Home Project.
The new fundraiser aims to raise enough money to ensure the elephants’ freedom, sparing them from a future of performing in circuses, giving rides to tourists, and suffering under the brutal conditions of the logging industry.
The Gentle Giants Stay Home Project has to raise over $30,000 to keep these elephants safe from cruelty and confinement. They’re asking animal lovers for help. Proceeds will pay for food, medical care, and caretakers’ wages.
For just $50 a year, or $4 per month, you can help an elephant live free from abuse and neglect. Your support comes with a Sponsorship Certificate, a photo of the elephant you’re sponsoring, and a personalized badge that you can use in your social media profile picture.
To donate, visit the campaign’s website. Lady Freethinker wholeheartedly supports Gentle Giants’ effort to rescue these elephants and save all elephants from exploitation.

Please stop using animals for your benefit for your well for your entertainment. They are not meant to be treated this way. This is evilness that needs to stop. Let the animals go back to where they belong. In the end you’ll pay for the prize for treating these poor animals the way you do

They don’t deserve to be sold to the logging and circus industries. They shoukd go to a sanctuary for the rest of their lives
Where is the petition for this? People need to start signing away. We are not going to wait until the creatures are imprisoned in slavery and they attempt to bail them out
HOW CAN YOU BE SO HEARTLESS? ELEPHANTS DO NOT BELONG IN FORCED LABOR!!! WHY DON’T YOU DO THE JOB INSTEAD OF THE ELEPHANTS!! SEE HOW YOU LIKE DOING THAT!!
They belong in the wild.
No more animal cruelty
Thai people, Thai gov’t.,
You do not need to sell elephants into circus & logging industries. You can be better than that. Why would you want elephants to suffer. They did nothing, in this life or any other life, to deserve such a horrible fate. Your reputation in the world community suffers from such abomination.
Elephants are sentient beings. Please let them live how they were meant to live – free!
These elephants should not be used in such cruel captivity. Keep then free now
Put the sadists in the ring with razor-sharp daggers on their paws and let them slaughter each other that rubbish but not defenceless animals!
THE WORLD SUPPOSED TO BE EVOLVING !!!!!!!!!!!!
STOP THIS CRUEL AND EVIL TORTURE NOW!!!!!!!!!!
