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

I TOTALLY AGREE WITH… Wendy Morrison
“FIND THESE CRUEL AND ABUSIVE BASTARDS WHOM CRUELLY ABUSED AND TORTURED THIS INNOCENT DEFENSELESS ELEPHANT AND DO EXACT TORTUROUS CRUELTY AND ABUSE TO ALL OF THEM!! REMOVE THEIR EYES with very dull knives, file all their teeth down just above their gumlines, and make them stand on sharp and jaggered rocks every where they go!! Have a written sign around each of their necks that says “DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY FOOD AND ANYTHING TO DRINK!!!” !!!! Evil Being Deserves The Same Treatment,,,PERIOD!!!!
I’m sorry for the years of abuse and cruelty that Kham Phaeng and the other elephants have been subjected to. I hope she and the other elephants recover and get well. I hope they get justice by the authorities seeing to it that those responsible for these atrocities are severely punished.
This beautiful and precious baby deserves a million times better & it sickens me to think and know how long she has & continues to suffer. Absolutely despicable on how she has & continues to be treated and uncared for.
The human(s) responsible for the blatant torture, suffering, & lack of responsible animal welfare husbandry need to be held accountable & prosecuted. The elephant needs immediate medical treatment, proper nourishment & expeditiously removed from the grasps of the POS abusive human(s).
Justice for Kham Phaeng e other elephants!
