As a former Guilford resident now in Thailand supporting elephant rescue organizations, I am appalled to learn of this elephant abuse at the Guilford Fair. Please cease and desist immediately. These amazingly intelligent and sensitive creatures are not toys/games.

In the 21st century, please lets leave behind the cruel practice of keeping captive wild animals for human entertainment. Elephant sanctuaries would receive these elephants with open arms.

This is a big issue, we need to stop treating animals like toys, they are living creatures that feel pain and sadness.

This is not entertainment...its barbaric. These majestic creatures were not made to amuse the masses. Do the right thing Guilford!

Continuing to enslave these poor animals will only drive people away from the Guilford fair.

Elephants are extremely intelligent sentient beings. They should not be in captivity and forced to perform especially in harsh conditions. What lesson are we teaching our children by allowing this!

Elephants should be living their own lives as elephants do. They are not for our entertainment. Please respect them.

Exploiting wild animals, particularly elephants, for the amusement of humans is repellent to me. I will always repudiate and avoid any organization that uses animals in this way.

So sad these beautiful creatures are abused for our watching. It is not needed and needs to stop now.
