The enclosure is terrible, so it doesn't meet any international guidelines for elephant
00:21
husbandry.
00:51
The
01:19
main disturbing thing is the severe stereotype behavior which you have.
01:24
No interaction with the elephant, the elephant is dangerous, dangerous for himself, dangerous
01:29
for anyone come near to him.
02:19
After our visit, we strongly have recommendation and suggestion for the zoo and we're obligatory
02:40
because it's matter of the safety of the animal, the health condition of the animal and the
02:45
safety of the visitors.
02:47
And after four years, none of this recommendation was done, none of the suggestion, none of
02:55
the medical requirement was done for the animal.
02:58
A lot of animal dies and this is very sad to see.
03:01
After all these years, nothing change for this elephant, no enrichment, nothing.
03:17
The initial report what we have now sure Kavan is fit to travel, he is in a physical good
03:43
body condition.
03:44
He don't have any infectious disease or transmissible disease to a human being.
03:51
All what we need now for Kavan to put him and to train him and to prepare him for such
03:57
relocation to the destination which is in Cambodia.
04:10
My friend, I'll say it clear, I'll state my case in which I'm certain.
04:18
I find that music calm me and calm him.
04:21
And this was the start to develop, to find a channel of communication.
04:34
I think this elephant give hope not only for him.
04:38
I think this elephant is hope for us as humanity.
04:41
Can we be human somehow?
04:44
And I think we have to fight for this to give him his dignity.
