M. Z. Separating the 2 koreas the reestablishment of guard posts inside the d. M. Z.

Very consistent message that annexation not only against International Law but it will be a major factor to the starting line. It will be something that and then the line what they are saying which is a 2 state solution in each israelis and palestinians continue to get any respect each other than get into each others. I hope that this voice of reason that is not only in mind. Of course that will be hurt. By these failure 42 so that annexation does not think place in the 1st like.

This has become a familiar yet still painful routine for. Its the 4th time shes had one of her calves taken from her the latest 18 month old is tended to another adult and taken away was tied to a tree in tyler is clearly distressed the as is been chewed very. Far away chained up crying out for her mother its really traumatic for us elephants and a while especially male coughs stay with their mother. Most entire life they would stay x. Ocean hurt with their mother. Assists on the videos some of which is too disturbing to show we shot secretly at an Elephant Training School in a province northeast of the thai capital bangkok. The techniques and punishments such as being beaten or prodded with metal hooks while being forced to walk while their legs are bound together and designed to make them compliant all in the end to entertain too. Many want to Close Encounter with one of thailands National Symbols or another animal 4 years ago one of the most popular wildlife attractions the tiger temple was raided and closed because of allegations the owners were trafficking big cats and animal parts soon after the park was given permission to reopen elsewhere these elephants that are among thousands captive in thailand will also be heading to parks and zoos but the coronavirus pandemic has meant the Tourism Industry here has ground to a halt was almost 200 Animal Welfare organizations wrote to the Thai Government asking them to use the opportunity to reset the industry theyve heard nothing back we really. Raise. And also ensure that the current generation of. Aljazeera also approached the Tourism Authority of thailand for reaction to the video but it declined the concern is that when the borders reopen operators will be desperate to make up for lost revenue and the elephants will be trained and put to work harder than ever wayne hay aljazeera bangkok or the pictures you saw in waynes report came from an undercover operation by the World Animal Protection order many of as the organizations global head of wildlife is joining me now from brighton in the u. K. Thank you very much indeed for being with us i dont think anybody would deny that the pictures that we saw in wins reports are extremely upsetting but how much responsibility to tourists have as to whether or not this kind of practice continues. Thanks rob thats a great question we feel that actually what these people who train these elephants are responding to is simply the demand from tourists and from tour operators to provide these these shows and to make sure that these elephants are available for for writing or performing tricks so we feel that tourists have have a lot to do with this situation and the people running these camps and working in them are doing it because they need to earn money we are talking about countries where the economy very often is struggling so how do you balance that requirement that people need to be able to get money and feed their families and so on with the need to protect. Again another interesting question our research has told us that the people actually who train and look after these allegations commonly called. And they say they benefit very you know theres no real benefit to them they work in terrible conditions the money the vast amounts of money thats generated from this kind of tourist attraction doesnt end up in their pockets theyre often as exploited as the animals themselves. So what we are calling for at wild Animal Protection is just for you know a whole new approach to this this a Wildlife Tourism that theres a better way for the animals for the people involved. Where the animals can be well looked after and their welfare is is is front and center we heard in waynes report there the representation is had been made by groups like yours to the government in order to try to change things but the government doesnt seem to be responding whats your next step. So yes well Animal Protection wrote a letter to the time i government and we had it supported by least 190 other welfare organizations and what we were calling for was a temporary breeding ban on elephants in thailand at the moment because many of them are unemployed and theres nothing else for them to do so there is a real danger that these animals will be bred because they are theyre a valuable commodity if you like. And however with the shutdown of tourism at the moment most of these owners cant even feed the elephants that theyve got at the moment so we feel its very irresponsible to be allowed to bring a whole new generation into this suffering in misery so we are calling on the government to just reset and we intend to you know to negotiate with the government behind the scenes i think that a situation like this could be highly embarrassing after all elephants are the you know the National Symbol of thailand and they deserve to be treated in a much better way order really are from World Animal Protection we appreciate it very much thank you very much indeed thank you thanks for having me rob.
