This actually made me quite mad and upset at the same time, an animal been held captive for 50 years since being a baby, now on her last legs at the age of 55, has been kicked, stabbed, punched in the face at least 45 times over a three week period.

For the love of god, get this animal out of their and torture the people responsible for this disgusting behaviour.

[-:Undertaker:-]

It would be nice to see her released into a zoo pen with other elephants, poor thing.

what the actual **** would you need to hit it for if it's not listening then god damn give it some time what the complete **** is the point in this. i really hope the people caught can go to jail or something like that as loads are in jail now for dog abuse etc. what a disgraceful image.

Watch the video (if their is one, i saw it on Sky News), it hits a neve. Wtf has this animal done thats so wrong?

[Jordy]

I somewhat blame the fools paying for tickets to animal circuses. They're clearly wrong and the animals get abuse, this is just further evidence.

That is disgraceful, to see an animal being treated and suffering in that way just makes me sick.

Lock em up and throw away the key.

I remember when I was really young, Junior school in fact, I watched a TV Show about circuses and I have continued to give a negative outlook on them ever since. I recall elephants on this specific show were chained to the top of a building in the burning American heat, beat and tortured. It's a disgrace, it really is.

Statistics on the Daily Mail video seem to show 63% of MPs want a ban, along with 98% of the public... so I don't see any reason why they wouldn't implement it. Thank goodness there is only one left in the UK; indeed, I really want like to see her in safe hands.

That was actually hard to watch. I hope someone chains that man up and beats him 24/7 for a slow, agonising death. Or better yet, I hope the elephant tramples him.

Give it to a zoo or something. So harsh.

Someone get a herd of elephants to stampede over these disgusting carnies.
