1. To send Muthu Raja back to temple ‘Kande Viharaya’ is to send him to his death @RW_UNP @GotabayaR @fernandoharin #SaveMuthuRaja #SriLanka pic.twitter.com/5mVYfBKVFG
2. Sri Lankas animal welfare laws not updated since 1905 as a result animals seen injured and suffering EVERYWHERE – What a wonderful impression this must leave foreign tourists with! @RW_UNP @fernandoharin #SaveMuthuRaja #SriLanka #SoSriLanka pic.twitter.com/1FAKduKJNK
3. Tikiri, Muthu Raja & Kapuru all elephants forced to participate in perahera processions despite being injured or ill. The entire perahera business is corrupt resulting in more elephants suffering @RW_UNP @fernandoharin #SaveMuthuRaja #SriLanka pic.twitter.com/zNY71YANKT
4. Muthu Rajas ever worsening condition has been ignored for years. Sri Lankan wildlife department and zoo department refuse to treat him because he is a foreign elephant. @RW_UNP @GotabayaR @fernandoharin #SaveMuthuRaja #SriLanka pic.twitter.com/ZAoB6t10Ad
5. Muthu Raja’s mahout is a known thug, the temple proved neglectful & uncaring yet despite this Sri Lankan authorities plan to leave elephant Muthu Raja with both & TAKE NO ACTION @RW_UNP @fernandoharin @wijerajapakshe #SaveMuthuRaja #SriLankaCorruption pic.twitter.com/TNECSR3Q7k
6. Will Kokkawita Wipulasara Thero the monk who made Muthu Raja suffer be arrested or does he receive “special” protection from the Sri Lankan government? @RW_UNP @GotabayaR @fernandoharin @wijerajapakshe #SaveMuthuRaja #Corruption #SriLanka pic.twitter.com/IwlY5aFB1r
7. After allowing Muthu Raja to suffer, the temple Kande Viharaya MUST no longer be permitted to keep elephants & the chief monk Kokkawita Wipulasara Thero MUST be prosecuted for animal cruelty! @RW_UNP @wijerajapakshe #SaveMuthuRaja #Justice #SriLanka pic.twitter.com/yyeJ6w9LtH
8. Sri Lanka your new welfare regulations for captive elephants DON’T WORK!! Muthu Raja was left to suffer. Kapuru was left to suffer, Myan Prince is still suffering, #SaveMuthuRaja #RescueMyanPrince @RW_UNP @GotabayaR @fernandoharin #RescueKapuru #SriLanka pic.twitter.com/DN8Q2RQIqB
9. Elephants regularly die prematurely in Sri Lanka due to lack of care, equipment and veterinary know how. Will elephant Muthu Raja be the next victim? @RW_UNP @GotabayaR @fernandoharin #SaveMuthuRaja #SriLanka pic.twitter.com/5tMx7IBYak
10. Muthu Raja his feet grievously injured and sore and yet STILL ON CONCRETE and STILL BEING RIDDEN. Sri Lanka proves itself over and over to be a god forsaken compassionless land! @RW_UNP @GotabayaR @fernandoharin #SaveMuthuRaja #SriLanka pic.twitter.com/FbhV7rIdWg
11. Young Thai elephant Muthu Raja permanently disabled by Sri Lanka & yet Sri Lanka plans on returning him to slavery to suffer some more, such is the compassion for elephants in this cruel country! @RW_UNP @GotabayaR @fernandoharin #SaveMuthuRaja #SriLanka pic.twitter.com/yKIOq0EcQO
12. Muthu Raja tortured, abused, and left to rot by the Sri Lankan government! Such is the Sri Lankan respect for their “gift” from the Thai Royal family! @dldThailand @top_silpaarcha @RW_UNP @GotabayaR @fernandoharin #SaveMuthuRaja #SriLanka pic.twitter.com/jIJwfY7wko
13. If Sri Lanka has any compassion for elephants Muthu Raja must be retired & sent to live peacefully at Ridiyagama, after all the suffering he has endured doesn’t he deserve this? @RW_UNP @GotabayaR @fernandoharin #SaveMuthuRaja #SriLanka pic.twitter.com/DG2o8lTQNG
