I seem to make a habbit of multiple posts... I just wanted to thank you for the inspiration. I might be going on a service learning trip to Thailand sometime in Dec. We're supposed to be doing a documentary on a group of displaced villagers and their elephants. Apparently that particular herd and village have been together for generations with every young elephant being attached to a herder. I know it's not quite animal rights but it's close no?
That and i'm more than a little concerned about the impact of 30 something elephants on the local ecosystem. The surrounding area seems to be in a bad way...
Which area in thailand is this? and the organisation which you are working with is? i may know some people who may be able to help you but there so much polictics in the elephants of thailand. do go about it more in the details dear!! :D sounds exciting!
Haha, i would, but i don't want to flood your "comments" section. We're working with a group called MirrorArt. The people are Mae Yao. And the village is "raummit" in the Chiangrai district. I'll be going as the teams photoshop monkey and photographer. But there are a few local businesses that want me to survey the surrounding forrests for sustainable aquaculture. soo... should be an interesting trip.
And yes, i'd appreciate all the help i can get. Especially since this seems more like your thing than mine :p Mind mailing me at xnsdvd@hotmail.com?
