They don't just look content or happy-- they look absolutely thrilled! Look at how excitable they are, just walking round and round a tree is fun! This all jumped off the screen within the first 5 seconds of footage, wow! Beautiful :)
It was amazing to see how happy they were to be freed of the chains that bound them for years. To see them spin in a circle something they could never do because of their chains, and shake and pick up their legs seemingly in disbelief they were finally free. It's a feeling of pure joy they are showing. Just beautiful.
I know this was made a long time ago and I've watched it before, but I never get tired of seeing the elephants enjoying their freedom. You can actually see them smiling!! And it looks like they've found a perfect rubbing tree!! The owner looked like she was very happy to give them their freedom. As always, Light and Love ~ Yvonne 💜
I'm in tears! Tears of happiness! Overjoyed, yet sad bc they should never have to experience freedom for the first time, they should be free as they were born to be! Elephants are truly gentle giants, they are sooo maternal, so loving, and the whole idea of hurting them is unforgivable to me. People who say they dont matter have no souls. They have emotions, a dynamic they need to live by and flourish. I am so happy! My prayer is for all to be free! All!
We went to Mae Rim sanctuary near Chiang Mai, Thailand, ... and I fell in love with these amazing beings, whose sentience is beyond anything I’ve ever known. Sharing a hug with an elephant was absolute joy! 💕🦋
Was in tears to see the relief and excitement of the elephants running round and round the trees. The trumpeting was a shout of joy. Only a hard heart wouldn't be moved by this sight.
This brought tears to my eyes, to see how joyous these elephants were to be free of chains, just to be elephants. How any one could hurt these creatures is beyond me. They're so sweet and intelligent. If you make friends with an elephant you have a friend for life. They just want to be free, natural elephants, and they deserve to be!💕🐘💕
I am sooo happy that they're free now! Beating them with hooks and chains is so Cruel! How would you like to be treated like that every day of your life? Thank goodness for the people who fight to free animals!! God bless you!!
To say they are happy is an understatement. The enormous amount of joy they are feeling is so beautiful. I swear it looked like they were trying to jump up and down to show the full extent of what they were feeling.
I used to manage a wildlife refuge in America, every release or re-release left me feeling almost like I gave birth....thank you, volunteers and wildlife experts for making this happen AND sharing this with us!☮️♥️🕉

Have you considered working with mammoth ivory? There is no cruelty involved, as the animals died thousands of years or more ago, and it brings much-needed income to Arctic people, especially in Siberia, who are struggling to survive in the changing climate.
What joy these dear elephants must be experiencing every single moment!! Thank you for sharing this incredible happiness with the world!! May their joy be never-ending......
Lek and her husband and all the people at the reserve are amazing and so respect their dedication to these amazing elephants and also the other animals they look after ❤️
honest to God, this video of these elephants made my heart feel so good. just watching over and over. such a blessing in this world, the people that provide this sanctuary.
WHAT A BLESSING TO SEE THESE MAJESTIC BEINGS ENJOYING FREEDOM!!!! THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HAS A PART IN THIS WONDERFUL STORY!!!!!! GOD BLESS YOU ALL. LARGE AND SMALL!!!!!
I loved seeing this! How absolutely wonderful to see and hear them trumpeting with excitement and rubbing themselves on trees with sheer abandon! You can hear and feel their joy! I'm so glad that the chains are off their legs and the heavy carrying seats are off of their backs. They look so happy to be free of chains and to be able to splash in the water, throw dust on their backs and eat what grass and leaves that they want, when they want! Thank you to Lek and all the people and volunteers who support her and her sanctuary. What an amazing thing they have done to help these elephants. A thank you also to the owners of the elephants that have given up their rights to these beautiful elephants and the government for helping it along.
It shocked me one day when I realized how hard humans make it for the wildlife and it really touches my heart to see people trying to make a change and correct the wrong that has occurred. Thank you so much for all that you do and thank you for sharing I subscribed.
What makes this video fun to watch is the joy and excitement exhibited by the three elephants when their chains were removed and for the first time, they were able to walk, move and swim unbound by chains, and explore their surroundings freely.
What a beautiful and joyful moment to see. I loved all of it. Bless you all who made it possible to give these incredible elephants a forever home with freedom.❤❤❤
I see it often when I am in Thailand stupid tourists feeding these abused animals in the middle of busy cities and using them for joyriding. Thankfully the city elephant is now getting rarer to witness after action by the Thai authorities.
stupid tourists? What would you do without them? It's the Thai people that offer these rides, one way to have an income. So don't call the tourists stupid, if something is offered it is normal for people to take part in it.
Dia. he s saying that everyone is culpable. to blame the tourists, ans shift the blame, as if the Thai people are completely guiltless is idiotic. the tourists are stupid? but you sure like taking their money don't you???
@@enzoferrari8223 Poverty and lack of opportunity outside of tourism contributes . It's sad that all this travelling and globalism doesn't seem to have made the majority of western travellers more conscious and Western travellers can afford to make more conscious and informed choices , so why aren't they doing so ? If your in a third world poverty situation you do what you have to do to survive.
Imagine a life like this: You are only allowed to eat when you are told to, only move when you are allowed to, only sleep when you are not needed. You are never free, always chained, for the rest of your life, and not even that is yours.
I can imagine......& it brings me such joy to see those precious critters enjoying themselves. I've never seen a den, lair, cave, etc., that had human heads on the walls nor chains, ropes or whips about. If only humans would learn from animals what true love really is 💔♥.
@@safalparajuli not sure what you mean here...do you mean they are protected when in this forest reserve, or protected from poaching when they are chained?
I am so happy for the freed elephants. Even from the video you can feel how happy and excited they are. Many thanks to the good people who helped freeing these elephants, you are true heroes, not only to these beautiful magnificent animals, but to human too. What you have done gives HOPE to humanity. You have shown to the animals and Mother Nature that we human can learn from our mistakes in the past and evolve to be better species on this earth too. You are great role models for all young generations to come. Thank you.
This is awesome I could cry ! 😢look at them bc please tell me you don’t have to gather them up again and lock them down ! That would be cruel!GOD BLESS THEM 🙏
Oh just be glad they've been set free from the terrible previous life they had. Some of them look in very poor condition and show signs of previous abuse.( thin scarred ears from beatings, hooks being pulled about). And it is not a zoo. It"s a reserve (which isn"t a fancy name for a zoo) with all the natural features of ordinary territory including jungle and a wide river. I've never come accross a zoo 68 sq. miles in size ( the size of this reserve). You think after years of cruel domestication they will suddenly adapt and suddenlly now how to cope?
This is what true nature is. The more we share these Incredible stories the better it is to create awareness and show others how watching the freedom of these beauties is a world apart from seeing them in captivity or used for rides and entertainment. Slowly but surely, the message will reach even those that do not give it a thought. Keep sharing, donating, signing petitions as this is the result right here. I am ecstatic watching their freedom unfold. Beautiful video ❤️💛💜💙
Humans are the only animals here ; arrogant, ignorant, despicable, cruel. It's so wonderful to see the elephants' joy. Well done to those who understand and care. THANK YOU XXX
Maybe because elephants have emotions that are humanlike we see them easier but all animals have feelings. My mom's a big fan of em , they are amazing creatures.
Yes they do and that's why 100 people are killed by elephants every year, same number as the man-eating lion. 500 by hippo and 1000 by crocodile and 25,000 by dogs...dumbass!
trvth1s horses would live happier,healthier lives if allowed more freedom. Please look into what is happening to the wild horses in America. They have been betrayed.
@@toneenorman2135 I'm just correcting your comments. Elephants and horses are happier then the tens of thousands of chickens that get slaughtered daily.
I've seen A LOT of elephants. I've never seen elephants acting like THIS! The elder elephants were instantaneously kids again! The way they kept shaking their leg was amazing! Elephants should never have to celebrate FINALLY being free! That brought so much joy to my heart!
My guess : they have never been in a body of water before. At best, they were likely hosed down with some water or buckets of dirty water thrown at them once in a while. Animals did not comitt any crime, they were born free just like the rest of us.
This is such a wonderful of these freed elephants! Their joyous celebration is beyond description! I find that the Asian elephants are much more expressive in how their body language is much more animated than the African elephants. The Asian Elephants use their tails much more in how they curl them up reminding me more like pigs or dogs. Also their vocal “speech “ is more diverse like sounds that sounds like barking & various intensities. Like the African elephants, the Asians also can communicate in ultrasonic frequencies. Thank you for filming these three unchained elephants expressing their joy! God bless you Lek and all those you love and assist you in your work. Just as I admire the DSWT in Kenya for the incredible job they are doing for the African elephants. The greatest accomplishment that they do is the reward when the baby orphans they cared for go back to the wild especially when they bring back their wild born babies to show them to the DSWT Keepers who raised them. God bless all of them as well!
One clear sign of abuse of captive elephants is their torn and ragged ears from beatings, hooks, and pulling and tearing their ears into submission. These elephants display such abuse. 🐘❤️🐘❤️🐘❤️
Barnum and Bailey circus elephants will be freed in a month or so to a conservatory in Florida, USA! beautiful news! thank you for your hard works. it has catched on!
The circus Elephants won't be freed to live naturally. It has been reported that the same owner is going to get even wealthier by allowing the elephants to be used for cancer testing, which will mean first imposing cancer on them. Humans are sick. So you see those circus Elephants have gone from one vile abuse to the blatant evil of experiments.
CA Catr I’m pretty sure cancer testing an elephants is actually looking at the genetics in an elephant to determine how to remove cancer or genetically alter humans to remove cancer it has to do with the fact that they have 23 of the alleles needed for cancer fighting where humans have one
It turns out the elephants are at a 200 acre sanctuary and from what I can find it appears they are just drawing blood from them once a month or so. I mean, it's still fucked up they can't just be left alone but they are way better off than they used to be and I don't think they've been injected with cancer.
@@cacatr4495 OH NO..... NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO DO THAT TO ANYONE OR ANIMAL... especially animals-- God told us to watch over them carefully. Cancer -- bull shit--- $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ for no damn reason.. That is pure torture == TORTURE AND PLEASE DO NOT ALLOW THIS.. THe real sickness is the perverted ways of the SOUL.. and they are covering it up with fake diseases-- that man himself has put here and for the pure purpose to CONTROL and make MONEY.... God have mercy---- (( this is not religious)) but a cry for the poor animals who cannot help themselves. damn you sick humans!!!!!!!
My heart runneth over. I hope this happiness and joy will be for all enslaved and tortured ellies! Because of Angel Lek and all volunteers. THANK YOU!!❤❤❤😘😘😘🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Exactly what I thought ..... I'm getting fed up of seeing these feel good videos... At the expense of a precious animals life . We need to stop it all happening in the first place.... ...and stop intruding on such a heartbreaking personal precious time Animals are much more precious than humans Much much more 🧡🧡🧡🧡
The unfortunate thing is that most tourists have no knowledge of the way these animals are abused. I had no idea that elephants were so mistreated until I stumbled upon these videos. I knew elephants were mistreated in the circus, but I had no idea that riding elephants were also abused and chained. I only became aware of this after watching "Tyke: The Elephant Outlaw" (I think that's the title). Now, I know better than to support tourist elephants. A month ago, I didn't.
And after entertaining people they are chained up and forced to stand in their own urine and poop, free all elephants they dont deserve to be treated like this.

Thank you for sharing this uplifting video. The joy these elephants are experiencing is palpable for everyone to observe and experience WITH them... I pray that they can show this video to others who have imprisoned elephants, and perhaps it will move their hearts to realize what they're doing is wrong... The best way to change peoples attitude is through loving and compassionate education. If we were to reveal are out rage and anger toward them they would harden their hearts and it would make them firm in there resolve to keep an elephant chained up. If we gently and lovingly show them the joy that these elephants experience at freedom, and let them realize just how intelligent elephants are, and that they dohave a sense of self-awareness, perhaps this vile and inhumane practice will come to an end.
Bless their Beautiful hearts. They deserve to be happy. To witness such joy must have been amazing. You people have hearts of gold. Thank you for all you do.

My guess : they have never been in a body of water before. At best, they were likely hosed down with some water or buckets of dirty water thrown at them once in a while. Animals did not comitt any crime, they were born free just like the rest of us.
I cried so much watching this, it was beautiful. Thank you for all of your amazing work.
This is such a wonderful of these freed elephants! Their joyous celebration is beyond description! I find that the Asian elephants are much more expressive in how their body language is much more animated than the African elephants. The Asian Elephants use their tails much more in how they curl them up reminding me more like pigs or dogs. Also their vocal “speech “ is more diverse like sounds that sounds like barking & various intensities. Like the African elephants, the Asians also can communicate in ultrasonic frequencies. Thank you for filming these three unchained elephants expressing their joy! God bless you Lek and all those you love and assist you in your work. Just as I admire the DSWT in Kenya for the incredible job they are doing for the African elephants. The greatest accomplishment that they do is the reward when the baby orphans they cared for go back to the wild especially when they bring back their wild born babies to show them to the DSWT Keepers who raised them. God bless all of them as well!
I love elephants! I'm so glad there are places like this that care for them and give them such happiness.
One clear sign of abuse of captive elephants is their torn and ragged ears from beatings, hooks, and pulling and tearing their ears into submission. These elephants display such abuse. 🐘❤️🐘❤️🐘❤️
Them running circles around the tree made me crack up and 👏🏻! I love you Lek!
This is so wonderful good
Thanks to the people of “the brown shirt cult” for setting the elephants free
That was very nice
I was curious about the shirts too. Definitely looked like a cult but a cult I'm 100% ok with lol
I was wondering too! Thanks for explaining 👍🇦🇺
These people are amazing, so happy to see these lovely animals happy
YES 💗💗💗 this is the way they should be living let's get this CRUELTY stopped NOW wonderful to hear them talking to each other so happyly💙💙❤️❤️
Barnum and Bailey circus elephants will be freed in a month or so to a conservatory in Florida, USA! beautiful news! thank you for your hard works. it has catched on!
The circus Elephants won't be freed to live naturally. It has been reported that the same owner is going to get even wealthier by allowing the elephants to be used for cancer testing, which will mean first imposing cancer on them. Humans are sick. So you see those circus Elephants have gone from one vile abuse to the blatant evil of experiments.
CA Catr I’m pretty sure cancer testing an elephants is actually looking at the genetics in an elephant to determine how to remove cancer or genetically alter humans to remove cancer it has to do with the fact that they have 23 of the alleles needed for cancer fighting where humans have one
Aimee Curry - and convicted rapists and murderers. !!!
It turns out the elephants are at a 200 acre sanctuary and from what I can find it appears they are just drawing blood from them once a month or so. I mean, it's still fucked up they can't just be left alone but they are way better off than they used to be and I don't think they've been injected with cancer.
@@cacatr4495 OH NO..... NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO DO THAT TO ANYONE OR ANIMAL... especially animals-- God told us to watch over them carefully. Cancer -- bull shit--- $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ for no damn reason.. That is pure torture == TORTURE AND PLEASE DO NOT ALLOW THIS.. THe real sickness is the perverted ways of the SOUL.. and they are covering it up with fake diseases-- that man himself has put here and for the pure purpose to CONTROL and make MONEY.... God have mercy---- (( this is not religious)) but a cry for the poor animals who cannot help themselves. damn you sick humans!!!!!!!
My heart runneth over. I hope this happiness and joy will be for all enslaved and tortured ellies! Because of Angel Lek and all volunteers. THANK YOU!!❤❤❤😘😘😘🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
So sad that humans are "surprised" an animal can display elation at living their life as it were intended.
They wern't surprised, they were happy for them, these ppl work with elephants & know what they'e doing.
Absolutely beautifull though.

Exactly what I thought .....
I'm getting fed up of seeing these feel good videos...
At the expense of a precious animals life .
We need to stop it all happening in the first place....
...and stop intruding on such a heartbreaking personal precious time
Animals are much more precious than humans
Much much more

I love the Trumpeting...it is beautiful 😍❤💕
❤❤🎉 especially to the camp-owner changing her mind🎉 We all have to work together for a better place for all of us
Only humans are so cruel to chain up these sensitive, social, intelligent, majestic beings
Duh.....only humans have chains
duh! only humans are smart enough to do it!
You said it right, intelligent beings. Just because they can't build structures or write we think of them as beneath us.
Yes but humans also freeed them.
elephants have graveyards ..... they are intelligent!!!!!
sadly some humans abuse them
The unfortunate thing is that most tourists have no knowledge of the way these animals are abused. I had no idea that elephants were so mistreated until I stumbled upon these videos. I knew elephants were mistreated in the circus, but I had no idea that riding elephants were also abused and chained.
I only became aware of this after watching "Tyke: The Elephant Outlaw" (I think that's the title). Now, I know better than to support tourist elephants. A month ago, I didn't.
U should see how they treat Temple Elephants !!
And after entertaining people they are chained up and forced to stand in their own urine and poop, free all elephants they dont deserve to be treated like this.
God bless those that helped this dream come true
I love all of the trumpeting, squeaky noises, and squealing!! Pure joy!!
This made my day. They’re very inspiring ❤️💕I really can’t believe that a thousand people have a thumbs down !
Так прекрасно, когда люди объединяются для того чтобы помочь животным🤲это чудесно💞
Helping animals means stop abusing them.

That was so beautiful to watch!
Thank you for sharing this uplifting video. The joy these elephants are experiencing is palpable for everyone to observe and experience WITH them... I pray that they can show this video to others who have imprisoned elephants, and perhaps it will move their hearts to realize what they're doing is wrong... The best way to change peoples attitude is through loving and compassionate education. If we were to reveal are out rage and anger toward them they would harden their hearts and it would make them firm in there resolve to keep an elephant chained up. If we gently and lovingly show them the joy that these elephants experience at freedom, and let them realize just how intelligent elephants are, and that they dohave a sense of self-awareness, perhaps this vile and inhumane practice will come to an end.
Bless their Beautiful hearts. They deserve to be happy. To witness such joy must have been amazing. You people have hearts of gold. Thank you for all you do.
I am so over joyed to see the transformation I truly love elephants and Lek
