^^ That's a terrible video. What an eye opener! Big Boy maybe you should pass this article/video on to your friends so they get an idea what these elephants go through as babies so tourists can have a ride on them or watch them paint pictures. If I had known about this before I went for an elephant ride years ago I would have never done it.

Maybe this link will help them make a better choice.

Just an update, they did the very serene 15 minute ride at the Vineyard, and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Despite the vineyard website indicating otherwise, there are 2 elephants there giving rides,
