The Animal Interfaith Alliance, an alliance of 17 faith-based animal welfare organisations, representing all the world’s major faiths, fully supports STAE in urgently calling on the UK government to legislate to ban UK tour companies from promoting the brutally cruel Asian elephant tourist resorts and attractions.
The horrific practices to break baby elephants’ spirits and subject them to a lifetime of torture is totally unacceptable, as is the tourist industry’s failure to self-regulate itself, and must be banned right now.
Our endangered Asian elephants are a most precious part of Creation whom we should honour and protect – in practice and in law.
