5. @LaotianTimes 🆘#Laos 🐘🐘on the verge of EXTINCTION! How does the graphic display of elephant abuse & exploitation at the #FestivalOfElephantAbuse help conserve #Laos 🇱🇦 elephants? pic.twitter.com/1gFOf6aHDl

6. #Laos 🇱🇦 Once known as 'The land of a million elephants' NOW 🐘 populations have declined to critical levels ⚠️Yet Laos thinks elephant torture conveys a 'conservation' message ? ? @LaotianDreaming @laostourism @explorelaos #FestivalofElephantAbuse pic.twitter.com/TJ7jjUC7yl

7. 🔽A tweet from LAST YEAR 🔽 Sadly, the prediction came true! Following the cruel #Festivalofelephantabuse at least 2 calves contracted and died from EEHV 😢 @LaotianDreaming pic.twitter.com/fzm6pK0N21

8. Does @laostourism really think this is what tourists want to see, elephants bullied & brutalised into performing tricks? 😢 @destinationlaos @explorelaos @discover_laos #FestivalOfElephantAbuse #Laos 🇱🇦 #EthicalTravel pic.twitter.com/ifYcYLoK8S

9. @laonews @euinlaos @RadioFreeAsia @LaotianDreaming @laophattana @LaotianTimes @tholakhong 🐘 at the #FestivalOfElephantAbuse are bullied into dangerous poses for entertainment. In 2025 shouldn’t we have evolved past this cruelty? #Laos pic.twitter.com/BBUdmY9iC2

10. @laonews @euinlaos @RadioFreeAsia @LaotianDreaming @laophattana @LaotianTimes @tholakhong A young calf suffers an unspeakably cruel fishhook over her ear at the #FestivalOfElephantAbuse in #Laos #AnimalAbuse pic.twitter.com/WnryUKWi7J

11. A diet of mainly unhealthy sugarcane, little rest, constant abuse. The #Festivalofelephantabuse is HELL for elephants @laonews @euinlaos @RadioFreeAsia @LaotianDreaming @laophattana @LaotianTimes @tholakhong pic.twitter.com/70G8FlFz2O

12. Yet another elephant with obvious wounds from the hook🔨 at the #FestivalofElephantAbuse #Laos 🇱🇦 Does this make you proud of your nation @LaotianDreaming ❓❓ pic.twitter.com/LKiIfekDID

13. @laonews @euinlaos @RadioFreeAsia @LaotianDreaming @laophattana @LaotianTimes @tholakhong at the #FestivalOfElephantAbuse #Laos the sickening sight of mahouts brutalising elephants into compliance is unavoidable! pic.twitter.com/rRBxko4BCn

14. @laonews @RadioFreeAsia @LaotianDreaming @laophattana @LaotianTimes @tholakhong The 🌍 is evolving past using wild animals for entertainment, why continue with the outdated #FestivalOfElephantAbuse which serves to portray #Laos 🇱🇦 in a very poor light? pic.twitter.com/RFkMJewUPc

15. @laonews @euinlaos @RadioFreeAsia @LaotianDreaming @laophattana @LaotianTimes @tholakhong A Clearly distraught young calf at the #FestivalofElephantAbuse #Laos 🇱🇦 Where is your humanity? pic.twitter.com/d769ZV36Y4

16. See how elephants are FORCED into painting at the #FestivalofElephantAbuse #Laos 🇱🇦 bullhooked one side, ear pulled and stabbed with a nail on the other! Inhumane CRUELTY @laonews @RadioFreeAsia @LaotianDreaming @LaotianTimes @BBCNewsAsia pic.twitter.com/Zk5ukcuI64

17. @laostourism @laotiandreaming #Laos could & should look to the future by focusing on developing ethical tourism with educational venues where people can watch elephants being elephants? #Ecotourism #Futureproof #EthicalTravel pic.twitter.com/hfZeO7LyvT

18. At the #Laos 🇱🇦 #FestivalofElephantAbuse mere children are taught to brutalise NOT respect & value elephants 😢 @laonews @euinlaos @RadioFreeAsia @LaotianDreaming @laophattana @LaotianTimes @lao_news @laosnews2011 @tholakhong pic.twitter.com/sRPI9dkIGg

19. @laonews @lao_news @BBCNewsAsia @RadioFreeAsia @LaotianDreaming The heart-breaking sight of a tiny baby already covered in bullhook scars & draped in chains at the #FestivalofelephantAbuse #Laos 🇱🇦 #Sayaboury pic.twitter.com/aSwcrQCOMl

20. This poor calf is tortured to perform to entertain the IGNORANT festival goers at the #Festivalofelephantabuse 😢😢#Laos 🇱🇦 @laonews @lao_news @BBCNewsAsia @RadioFreeAsia @LaotianDreaming pic.twitter.com/UcrZEu6aK2

21. Elephants are brutalised into performing tricks at the #FestivalofElephantAbuse in #Laos 🇱🇦 they comply out of FEAR not willingness! In 2025 shouldn’t we be better than bullying & brutalising the voiceless for our own entertainment ? pic.twitter.com/K16RFKxfA6

22. No care for elephants, and no common sense! Little wonder their elephant population has declined so drastically! #FestivalofElephantAbuse #EEHV #TB @LaotianDreaming @LaotianTimes pic.twitter.com/C66dtSoE2G

23. Many elephants at the #FestivalofElephantAbuse #Laos 🇱🇦 exhibit stereotypical behaviours, this repetitive swaying & bobbing is indicative of stress and/or distress in elephants @laonews @lao_news @BBCNewsAsia @RadioFreeAsia @LaotianDreaming #Sayaboury pic.twitter.com/rLgBs1hEkw

24. What happened to the Buddhist precept of 'Do no harm' ? Why is animal cruelty celebrated in a predominantly Buddhist nation? #Laos @laonews @lao_news @BBCNewsAsia @RadioFreeAsia @LaotianDreaming @laophattana @tholakhong #FestivalOfElephantAbuse pic.twitter.com/xNfQpla1Ma

25. #Laos is rich in culture both beautiful & fascinating, why soil this with a festival that features the torture of innocent animals? @laostourism @destinationlaos @explorelaos @discover_laos @LaotianDreaming #FestivalofElephantAbuse #CrueltyNotCulture pic.twitter.com/TNyxVrNhLD

26. Unable to rest properly in an alien place, then subjected to stress & worked all day long without respite, many of the elephants at #FestivalofElephantAbuse are visibly exhausted 😢 #Laos @BBCNewsAsia @lao_news pic.twitter.com/BnCCxG1DDk

27. Stabbed with a concealed nail, a tug on the fish hook digging into the elephants sensitive ear. THIS is how elephants are forced to perform at #FestivalofElephantAbuse #Laos 🇱🇦 @Laostourism @Laotiandreaming @LaotianTimes pic.twitter.com/7C7Sgc33qI

28. Young 🐘calves at the #FestivalofElephantAbuse are subjected to brutal 'training' & torture 💔 Is #Laos 🇱🇦 a nation devoid of compassion? Do the Lao people not see these wounds or do they not care? pic.twitter.com/UTh4BzBpDw #ຄວາມໂຫດຮ້າຍຂອງປະເທດລາວ

29. Everyone loves baby elephants...except in #Laos 🇱🇦 ! How can a nation be so cruel & uncaring? @RadioFreeAsia @laotiandreaming @Laostourism @Laotiantimes @BBCNewsAsia #ບຸນຊ້າງ #ຄວາມໂຫດຮ້າຍຂອງປະເທດລາວ #ElephantFestival pic.twitter.com/CeLl2gP90u

30. See how this wounded calf at the #FestivalofElephantAbuse flinches each time she is touched? @RadioFreeAsia @laotiandreaming @Laostourism @Laotiantimes @BBCNewsAsia #Laos 🇱🇦 🐘 pic.twitter.com/PYISsO112O

31. #Laos 🇱🇦 says #FestivalofElephantAbuse promotes 🐘conservation, yet stalls on site sell products made from ivory, 🐘 hair & even skin making a total mockery of the conservation messaging! @laotiandreaming @Laostourism @Laotiantimes @BBCNewsAsia pic.twitter.com/pxsua9LyIR

32. Does sponsoring the abuse & exploitation of 🐘, a highly intelligent and endangered species make you proud @Ford ❔#FestivalofElephantAbuse #Laos 🇱🇦 pic.twitter.com/g9YXiHe3Sp
