Thanks Bubbalinn. Yes, it was very strange seeing them all walking around. They aren't particularly well treated though, which is sad

Hi Bernie, Really nice photo and very fun to view. It looks like the man is caged up lol.. That is strange but cool that they let the elephants run around free. You would think they would be afraid that they might hurt someone. Great Photo! I really enjoyed it...

Thanks for looking Carol. It was very strange to see them all wondering freely around the zoo. There were dozens of them, and very well trained - although beaten to submission, which I didn't like too much!

Yes, there are alot of 'unusual' things about this plae - and the country as a whole. I can't say I have any desire to return to the zoo in a hurry - although the elephants are gorgeous, and well trained. Thanks for looking

Lol. Thanks GAV. I think the man turned on the tap - but judging by the tricks these guys all do, I would hazard a guess that it wont be long nefire he is taught

Cool photo. Looks like he has learned to turn the tap on, or is his man friend thinking about how he could teach him to do it. Gav.

KM and Tans, thanks for looking. These elephants walked freely around the zoo, and happily let people climb all over them. They even smiled for photos. It did cost a few bananas though! Mum was walking around also
