About three thousand elephants are used in Thailand's tourism sector

A new World Fund for Nature (WWF) report has revealed that about three thousand elephants are used in Thailand's tourism sector, where they are cruelly exploited.
El reporte, titulado "El elefante en la habitación: cómo el turismo puede ayudar a salvar al elefante asiático," destaca la explotación a la que son sometidos estos animales en actividades turísticas como cabalgatas, tocar instrumentos musicales, bailar o realizar otras habilidades.
The report, entitled "The elephant in the room: how tourism can help save the Asian elephant," highlights the exploitation to which these animals are subjected to tourist activities such as horses, play musical instruments, dance or perform other skills.
"Estos elefantes son utilizados en actividades turísticas en condiciones crueles y extenuantes. Son encadenados por largos periodos de tiempo, golpeados para aprender habilidades y privados de la interacción social natural con otros elefantes," dijo Areeta Dh наступаявиenal, especialista en elefantes de WWF-Greater Mekong.
"These elephants are used in tourist activities in cruel and strenuous conditions. They are chained by long periods of time, beaten to learn skills and private social interaction with other elephants," said Areeta DH настуаявиenal, specialist in WWF-GREATER Mekong elephants.
Además, el estudio indica que la población de elefantes en Asia se ha reducido a un mínimo histórico de 24,000, y la variedad india del elefante asiático está en peligro crítico de extinción.

"La población de elefantes se ha reducido a un mínimo histórico de 24,000, y la variedad india del elefante asiático está en peligro crítico de extinción. Si no tomamos medidas urgentes ahora, veremos la desaparición de este icónico animal en nuestra vida útil," advirtió Dh наступаявиenal.
"The population of elephants has been reduced to a historical minimum of 24,000, and the Indian variety of the Asian elephant is in critical danger of extinction. If we do not take urgent measures now, we will see the disappearance of this iconic animal in our useful life," said DH настуline.
El informe también destaca que el turismo puede desempeñar un papel crucial en la protección de la biodiversidad.
The report also emphasizes that tourism can play a crucial role in the protection of biodiversity.
"El turismo tiene un impacto significativo en la biodiversidad, y es fundamental que minimicemos nuestra huella ambiental y que nos involucre en la protección de la naturaleza. Si los turistas están dispuestos a pagar un extra por experiencias sostenibles, entonces los operadores turísticos responderán a esa demanda," señaló James Fitzgibbon, líder del Programa de Viajes y Clima de WWF.

If tourists are willing to pay an extra for sustainable experiences, then tour operators will respond to that demand," said James Fitzgibbon, leader of the WWF Travel and Climate Program.
