Three elephants were handed over by the Kanchi Mutt to the founders of Tree Foundation in 2016, to give them a happy home closer to their habitat, in a chain-free facility at Marakkanam, Tamil Nadu. Their happy stint was cut short in three-and-a-half years after a court order ruled that a ‘chain-free’ facility was in clear violation of the Captive Elephants’ Guidelines.Forest officials used brute force to relocate these elephants to a facility in Trichy. Do you believe elephants don’t deserve to live chain-free?

You are looking great
The wild belong to the wild.. Free and happy. They were not created by God to be chained or human slaves!! Abuse happens everywhere… Whether in the form of elephant rides, zoos, temple elephants etc…. No living being would choose a life of captivity and abuse.
Elephants rescued from abuse should be sent to sanctuaries where they get full veterinary care, food, freedom and safety…. There are many such sanctuaries in India!!
Wait i am confused! Are they chained again or not !
Good Job
So cute…
Want to donate you

Ohh… I love all these 3 ??
Y can't they stay chain free in a secured place. In fact they r kept chain free in functions so y can't they be kept chain free in a secured place
Why not you adopt them then? Let's see your solution.✌️?
They should be donated to wild in Africa.
How they are getting the money for their survival. I mean the guys who are taking care of the elephants.
Confusing Editing (for whether they are free or not!)
The part of the video in which they are being chained should've been included at the end…as it is the most RECENT one…and most of the people are getting confused about the current status of these ELEPHANTS…
This video should get support from people all over the world in order to help these elephants get their freedom ??
Superb work
