Thailand's Talented Elephants
Elephants are an important part of Thai culture and
the Thai way of life. They are a traditional symbol
of royal power, an essential feature of Buddhist art
and architecture, an a spiritual mentor for people of
all walks of life. In the early part of this century,
elephants roamed freely and in multitude throughout
Burma, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam. Prior to
the 18th century they were the main machine of Southeast
Asian war, a Thai king of the late 17th century having
had 20,000 war elephants trained for battle. Elephants
in Thailand have always been a symbol of both power
and peace. They have always performed the most exacting
physical tasks. And they have always been well loved.
