I have been lately thinking aboutu00a0 the death of an elephant in Jaipur. More than a 100 elephants that are used to take tourists up to the Amer Fort are not given proper shelter or water.



Elephants are also poked with a metalu00a0 hook when they do not listen. Recently, when an elephant went berserk, theu00a0 government authorities tranquilised it, and it never woke up again.

PETA has been fighting for their rights for a long time now, but the elephants haven't been getting justice.
