Justice for Senior Elephant’s Missing Eye, Parasites, and Injured Hips

Target: Srettha Thavisin, Prime Minister of Thailand

Goal: Initiate legal proceedings against individuals allegedly responsible for Kham Phaeng’s abuse.

Reportedly emaciated and scarred, 54-year-old Kham Phaeng’s plight in Pattaya has sparked global concern. Her condition, as described by Unchained Elephants, paints a harrowing picture: severe dental wear, loss of an eye, potential internal parasites, and a body marred by the rigors of trekking and logging. This case symbolizes a broader issue of animal cruelty that demands urgent attention. For Kham Phaeng and others like her, immediate legal action is not just a matter of justice; it’s seemingly a necessity for their survival.

Kham Phaeng’s condition reportedly stems from a lifetime of exploitation. According to Unchained Elephants, her worn teeth, missing eye, and damaged hips and back are direct results of her strenuous and painful labor. Furthermore, tourists continue to fuel this alleged cruelty by patronizing elephant rides, ignoring the horrors elephants like Kham Phaeng endure. Such apparent neglect and exploitation must be addressed legally to prevent further suffering.

The rescue and rehabilitation efforts for Kham Phaeng are commendable, but they are not enough. This action will send a powerful message against animal cruelty and ensure that others do not suffer as Kham Phaeng allegedly has. Help stand up for those who cannot speak for themselves.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear PM Srettha Thavisin,

We are writing to urge you to initiate legal proceedings against the individuals allegedly responsible for the abuse and mistreatment of Kham Phaeng, a 54-year-old elephant in Pattaya. Her current state, as reported by Unchained Elephants, indicates a life of severe neglect and exploitation. This situation reportedly reflects a disturbing trend of animal cruelty that must be addressed through legal channels.

Kham Phaeng’s condition is reportedly the result of years of labor in trekking and logging, alongside alleged mistreatment by those who profited from her labor. Her worn teeth, loss of an eye, and skeletal frame are not just signs of old age but of reportedly sustained cruelty and neglect. Such alleged abuse cannot be overlooked. Legal action against those responsible is essential to set a precedent against animal exploitation.

As a concerned citizen, we urge you to take swift action. The legal pursuit against those allegedly responsible for Kham Phaeng’s condition is not only about one elephant’s suffering. It represents a stand against a wider issue of animal cruelty. By holding individuals accountable, we can deter future abuse and ensure that animals are treated with the respect and care they deserve.

Sincerely,

Your Name Here

  1. Unfortunately abuse is not in one country but in ALL countries. What is it about humans that many are so vile, so disturbed and cruel yet they go on living in spite of atrocious actions? No wonder the earth is dying, animals, dying, wildlife dying but not abusers. This elephant was harmed horribly, even missing and eye, all done by men who are not men at all. There is no honesty, compassion or valor among such men. They defile the earth by their very presence. Yet they live on to harm others when it is the abusers who need to face punishment. This abuse will continue until someone is made an example of how crime doesn’t pay.

  2. Very easy case. Find the responsible bastards and sodomize them publicly.

  3. should be jailed

    Close this so-called logging facility DOWN for good, jail all those involved in this disgusting abuse and send this poor soul to a CARING SANCTUARY where she can be cared for properly.

  5. Susan Rodriguez says:

    Why is it that humans think they can use any animal they want to do whatever they want and then not even have the humanity to at least treat them humanely. Please close this logging company and take this elephant to a sanctuary where she can live her life out in peace.

  6. Patricia Mitchell says:

    Thailand, Sri Lanka,
    and India are the worst for elephants.
    The Thai government DOESN’T CARE AT ALL. Ditto Sri Lanka.
    We petition all of them weekly. but nothing changes.
    They have no respect for wildlife! Elephants have been set ON FIRE in Indian villages.
    It takes the public to SEE what happens.
    TV won’t show cruelty – they don’t want to “upset’ anyone.

    This is an EXTREME ENVIRONMENTAL CRIME!
    This is beyond SHOCKING! What’s wrong with humans!?
    No animal deserves to be the victim of DEHUMANIZED and DESENSITIZED SADISTIC PSYCHOPATHS!!!

    This neglected, tortured and exploited elephant must be sent to an accredited sanctuary! The sooner the better!

  8. Jacqueline Adams says:

    This is so Disgusting!!! How do we get across to the government and people?? Maybe, that we are watching and demand medical help for this elephant and NO more abuse!!

  9. Pamela Plambeck says:

    Please hold the individuals responsible for Kham Pheen’s abuse legally accountable and demonstrate that sentient beings deserve respect in your country.
