"Elephants are beautiful just as they are. They don't need to be ridden or trained or do tricks or travel the world. Just let them be where they are and you don't get anything more beautiful than that." 👍
That is so true! I love to simply watch them all move together as a herd. They are so fluid and beautiful, such special beings, just fine alone in nature!

WOW! I loved this story! It gives us hope in the efforts of mankind. All you hear about is the unlawful slaughter of elephants and now we have a group of them roaming freely on a large preserve that was created just for them. This restores my hope in mankind.
My heart cries for these poor creatures. Sad elephants have such long memories! On the other hand, my heart sings with joy, seeing them smiling! Lol! Great story! Thanks! 👏
@@amywalker7515 The elephants are wild animals (or should be). That makes this a totally different situation than the domesticated animals that you mentioned.

These elephant would have a better life if only animal activities did not slander Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey. You can’t upgrade facilities if you have low ticket sales because of false information. Animal Activities caused the pain of elephant.

As one of the many who worked for decades , trying to end the "Circus performance" life, and find a better life for those divine animals...this video brought me to tears. Blessings to all who are caring for the gentle giants.
very uplifting news that these amazing elephants can now live life free in nature - I always hated the circus- wild animals should never be exploited for human beings - so grateful and thankful for this wonderful conservation group-
This makes me so happy!!! Im so glad they are not in that circus anymore!!! I also did not like to see the animals imprisoned like that when i was little! I hope they live long very happy lives! They deserve it! ❤❤❤❤🐘
This is just beautiful ❤️ thankfully they get to be together with freedom and peace. These elephants have more family values and morals than human beings.
This is wonderful I am so very happy for all these beautiful precious animals Thank you for saving them from such a small space They look so happy playing in the water and mud God bless
Thank goodness they have a better life now. They are wonderful creatures and deserve to be free. Thank you for caring and giving them a safe, secure place to be themselves. Just look how happy they are. Greetings from the U.K.
Let them babies enjoy what time they have left on this Earth. Thank you to the people that helped make it right for what all these animals have been through. God bless them.
Thanks for finding a spacious habitat for these majestic beauties. I live in Florida and would love to work at a place like this. We need more places like this for any animal being exploited.
Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey circus took care of their animals. It was exploitation they got exercise and were cared for by great people such as Guther Gebel Willams.
@@trevorthesorcerer I actually attended their circus many years ago with my daughter and we didn't see any abuse whatsoever so I'm not sure as to why the circus has since been shut down. The exploitation was researched by PITA and other animal right's groups. We don't know the whole story.
Seeing elephants roaming wild and free in India was one of the most impressive sights I have ever seen. This sanctuary has given these elephants freedom, a zoo looks like a jail in comparison!
I pray all elephants are released from barbaric conditions around the world. My heart is joyous that these ten have a little freedom in their lives. You are all angels who helped in this rescue
I hope this sanctuary would allow volunteers to help take care of the elephants like they do in Thailand. I'd pay to spend a week or two to help take care of the elephants. I have no issues shoveling elephant dung to help these beautiful and gentle beasts! God bless these people who saved these elephants.
To everyone who has managed to put this all together what wonderful people. The time, money, bureaucratic BS, this is so massive. I know these animals, probably more than any other animal, do have awareness of their life change and appreciates everything that has been done to help them. These animals are so fantastic. There are several sanctuaries that are working so hard to save these magnificent animals, they are incredibly smart, kind, and worth saving and giving them better lives.
Magnificent animals. So happy they have this large property to be free and roam together forever. May God bless them and their wonderful caretakers. ❤️
I am thrilled for these beautiful creatures. Glad B&B Circus no longer has them in their greedy little grip. Eventually, it will become a global effort to remove wild animals from their captivity/prisons and treated with respect. Great story guyz!! 🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘

I'm 50 years old, at 18 years old I worked in Circus Vargas with elephants, they were treated very well, we would take them to Lakes, to the ocean, walking through the woods, feed them watermelons cantaloupes and other Foods, they were checked on by veterinarians, people just got to say things to make things worse, I've never seen elephant get abused, you can call me a liar, but you never worked in a circus then you should never complain, because I guarantee if you have a dog you miss handle your dog a lot, and what about people that do horse racing, and other animal activities and performances, do you think they're all treated fairly, not , I guarantee there treated worse than elephants, once again I got the chance to hang out with him for eight years of my life, worked with one elephant for two years, didn't see her for another two-and-a-half years, and when I saw her she pick me up with a trunk and gave me a hug, people that work with elephants love their animals.
