Campaign to stop the elephant slavery in kerala....please campaign for a civilized malayalee society....

 

The incident that occurred at Koodalmanikyam will be in discussion for two days and then every body will forget about this. We have to understand that elephants in Kerala are wild elephants, i.e. they were born in the forest and they enjoyed the freedom for many years and then they were captured and tamed, at any point of time they can become wild.

 

Where else in the world can you see a wild animal among a group of people.....?

 

There is a big lobby behind this elephant business in Kerala. Domestication of elephants should be banned totally, and if some temples need them, that temples should own an elephant and they should start breeding them in captivity instead of going to the wild...

 

In most of the time the people that involve in these accidents are from the lower strata of the society and thats why, even media ignores this. Have you ever thought that how will be the media reaction if some owners are killed...or some one high in the society is killed...

 

In such kinds of incidents the criminal proceedings should be initiated against the owners against man slaughter. There is a big Mafia involved in the elephant business in Kerala; it includes greedy owners, some elephant specialist media persons, some veterinary doctors and some so called elephant lovers. Have you ever investigated into the real business behind the present day elephant owners?

 

When ever these kinds of incident occur, these owners will escape scot-free, and the blame will be on the poor mahout...as there is no one to speak on their behalf.

 

In order to prevent such incidents in the future, These poor creatures will be severely tortured in name of precaution.

 

So its high time friends to run a campaign to stop this uncivilized activity and that too in the name of culture and tradition. We don’t need to conserve the tradition by sacrificing the lives of poor people. As a modern society we in Kerala have stopped many uncivilized activities, especially associated with religion and tradition

 

Another big problem of this domestication is that all the male elephants with tusks are caught and brought to kerala, and this will lead to the decrease of tusker gene in the population, as these elephants are never allowed to mate. The elephant population in the forest is maintained because of the Makhanas (males with out tusk ) and because most of the females carry the gene for tusk we are still seeing tuskers in our forest.  Our grand children or great grand children will not see tuskers any more.

 

Since 1974 the capturing elephants from the forest are banned in India, still how we can have more than 900 domestic tuskers in Kerala!!!

 

More than 90 % of the elephants in Kerala are illegal, maintained because of the unhealthy nexus between this greedy elephant owners, politicians and corrupt forest,  veterinary and festival officials

 

Lastly elephants are not created by the nature for the Malayalees to celebrate festivals. These are black animals with out many sweat glands and these creatures are made to stand in hot sun for hours (and of course with a great comfort……with wet sacks on the ground!!!!!!!! With this I think the elephant should feel as if they are staying in an AC room…..what a great decision…..Kudos to the authorities for taking such a wonderful decision!!!!), with high decibel sounds of fire works, huge lights and in between thousands of people…In nature these animals graze in thick ever green forest and near to water holes and also with sand and mud bath….But what we do in our God’s Own Country???....

There is no solution for this problem, but only to ban the domestication of elephants

 

Friends please boycott these uncivilized festivals in Kerala which are celebrated by torturing these poor creatures…
