![After lunch Lek takes time-out to speak to a room full of volunteers and tourists. She opens by telling the group Elephant Nature Park tries to focus on education which can stop a lot of cruelty. From the back row a male volunteer, Kingsley Williams from Australia asks, "Is any kind of elephant riding wrong?" ..Lek responds: "I have to tell you, I don't like it. But I don't blame people who ride them, because they want the experience, but if they know what is behind the training it is not good. I can tell you that with elephant trekking in Thailand 100 percent of the elephants go to the traditional training crush. I'm going to show you this video I filmed across the border in Myanmar, but I warn you, it is very difficult to watch.". .The video opens with horrendous shrieks from a baby elephant whose feet and neck are chained inside a tight stockade made from wood logs. Villagers jab at its body with bamboo sticks, some with sharpened spikes on the end to inflict more pain. [Optional text: Blood drips from the wounds. The shrieks from the animal continue. Another villager smashes it across the face with a heavy pole. Water like tears drip from its eyes. The elephant continues to resist, but it can't move, and each time the beating gets worse. At one point a villager's uses one of the spikes to stab deep into its ear canal.] Several people in the audience begin to cry, some have to leave the room. This is the traditional training crush, used for centuries to break the will of these highly intelligent creatures, so they will obey and perform for humans. Elephants can be subject to the crush for 3 days up to one month, depending on how long it takes to destroy their spirit. ..](https://archive.rogerarnold.net/img-get2/I0000KygaAPFBmg8/fill=/fit=180x180/I0000KygaAPFBmg8.jpg)
![Lek with Hope at the Elephant Nature Park near Chiang Mai, Thailand. ..Hope is the most active and mischievous elephant in the park, whom she rescued as a baby. "I spoiled him. Now he thinks he is a prince here," she admits. When Hope first started living at the park he went up to Uncle Mac the tallest elephant in Thailand trying to intimidate him. Lek says, "Hope thought he was a big boy," but Uncle Mac, twice his size, was not afraid of him. But she explains - everyone at the park must obey Hope. ..One day a local rafting guide poked Hope with a stick and laughed as he was guiding clients down the river passing through the park. Lek says Hope never forgot that man. Hope would allow every rafting guide and their clients to pass with no problem, but every time that man appeared on the river Hope would run and turn his raft over. She says the man tried shaving his head as a disguise, but ended up having to quit. Hope always remembered him. ..However, Lek says, "The vet [veterinarian] is Hope's number one enemy." One time Hope injured his tusk fighting with an elephant named Jungle Boy. The vet used a huge painful needle to cure Hope's infection. Lek laughs as she continues, "A few weeks later the Vet walked past Hope and he felt something hit the back of his head that was very wet. The vet could feel and smell that it was poop. Hope just grabbed his poop and threw at the vet. Then Hope stood their innocently pretending he didn't do it! The vet turned away and Hope did it again!" Even today the vet can't go near Hope unless the ground is cleaned up first. Lek says, "Oh my god. Hope causes me so much trouble. He always has to show everybody who is the boss." .](https://archive.rogerarnold.net/img-get2/I0000X3rk52CRQa0/fill=/fit=180x180/I0000X3rk52CRQa0.jpg)
