[@ronnieronb73]

No. He has good intentions. He is far from being a hero. Calling people heroes is so overused. Ridiculous.

[@lindagibney3134]

I will never understand how anyone could harm even kill such highly intelligent beautifully majestic sentient beings they should be Loved, respected and protected at all costs!

[@bdssoaz]

True true...

[@angelahill3556]

I don't understand why people eat any animal. You don't need to eat animals for optimal nutrition and health it's a lie it's brainwashing. None of God sentient beings deserve to be treated bad murdered enslaved or eaten.

Asians and Indians are fucking ruthless with animals .. sorry to piss you off but it's the truth and you know it

If you're not vegan you're harming animals.

[@kathykay6602]

You said what I have always believed: elephants are not for your entertainment, not for you to ride or enslave. Thank you Sir for all you do...

[@mulligatawnysoup9281]

No animal is. We should stop factory farms. Cows are sentient too.

@@mulligatawnysoup9281 Can you rescue all those Bulls from Matador racing or all those horses from White people's stables? Or you feel for animals when they belong to South East Asia? Hypocritical double standard.

May every single person involved in the enslavement, torture & abuse of these beautiful creatures have their evil deeds return to them 10 fold throughout eternity!! No excuse to treat any living being in this manner !!! Bless the rescuers!! May your lives be filled with love, joy, peace, health & prosperity for as long as you live !❤

When you are preaching about this, don't forget about zoos that have enslaved all kinds of animals. Nashville Zoo is a prime example.

Me too 😢

[@mamaboocee]

Me, too. Animals have minds and hearts just like we do. They just communicate differently and it is up to us to span that communication bridge for them. The dog Bunny and her communication "buttons" are proof. See KZbin channel "What about Bunny" to see! It's a breakthrough! Everyone needs to see! I know elephants can do how Bunny does!

The long awaited rescues of these sweet, gentle & docile elephants made me cry b/c I was discerning their many years of torture & hardship they endured. Yet at the same time, I loudly rejoiced after I saw them finally get their taste of forever freedom & finally get those heavy chains removed that were wrapped around for decades on their neck, body and/or limbs, just so they couldn't escape from their life of torment, pain & hardship.❤🐘❤

wonderful rescue....thanks to all those compassionate, dedicated and patient rescuers and those who support them. With the human populations unfortunately exploding, those humans' many actions also accelerate not just climate change as they change the land, the topography, but they also harm animals in the process. So again -- much gratitude for your work.

This wonderful man teaches us all an invaluable lesson. He saw animals suffer and actually got up and did something about it. Don't us just comment 'how nice' etc, get up and do something yourselves to help to make this world a better place. For myself, I will volunteer at an animal sanctuary.

[@ariag.8745]

What I find mind blowingly extraordinary is that after serving humans, in bondage, for that long(40+ years), she then trusts humans that she doesn't know by following them 20 miles to a piece of land she is unfamiliar with! Amazing!

[@mshappyheart]

I've never cried this much watching a dodo video for years 😭 this warms my heart so much I have to leave a comment. I love seeing elephants being rescued and just let them be. Thank you 🙏

[@linamaudlej9953]

Thank you for caring for these amazing animals. It's crucial that people learn about the harsh realities of elephant tourism-it’s truly heartbreaking. Please take the time to read about Phajaan and the suffering involved. I hope for a future where all elephants can enjoy true freedom. 😥😥😥

[@debrakleid5752]

To see the head of the elephant in that condition was shocking. Now she doesn’t want to worry about the chains anymore or if she will get fed! She will meet other elephants, have a full belly and hopefully get some fat on her. I would love to see the transition from day 1 to a year later. What’s also heartbreaking though is for 50 years that she endured cruel treatment she understood more than what people realize. Elephants are very smart like orcas, dogs, cats, octopuses, dolphins, and whales and many type of birds.

[@synappticuser7296]

This man is living his best life, and helping elephants to live theirs too! Big thanks and big hugs to those working at the sanctuary. 😊
