Where is he the king, he is king only when he is free and in the wild with his own family. Now he is prisoner of human beings and their rituals.

I think it's time to realize that the elephant / elephants needs to be free from chains, in a jungle!! Chains and hooks have no place in their lives. Not even in the name of religion!!

Take off the chains get rid of the bull hook and see what the elephant wants to do to celebrate this holiday and that is the true path. Oh and don't drug the poor animal. His eyes are glazed over.
