  • CHIANG MAI - FEB 22 2006: An elephant removes a tourist's hat at The Mae Sa Elephant Park. The animals perform tricks such as kicking soccer balls, painting pictures, and giving rides. However, they are usually treated very poorly at such entertainment-based facilities. Many visitors believe the only way to interact with the animals is through the entertainment based shows, when many environmentally based programs provide better experiences for both people and animals. Asian elephants - strong, social, and intelligent - have been trained for thousands of years for use in transportation, labor, and ritual. In Thailand, Elephants are of immense cultural importance, but their numbers are shockingly plummeting. In 1905, there were over 100,000 elephants in this land - now they are estimated at less than 5,000, of which barely half are in the wild.  (Photo by Logan Mock-Bunting)

  • CHIANG MAI - FEB 27 2006: A curious baby elephant seeks shelter with its mother at Elephant Nature Park in Northern Thailand. Females usually have one calf after a gestation period of 18-22 months and give birth every three to four years. The calves weigh about 200 pounds (100kg) at birth. Asian elephants - strong, social, and intelligent - have been trained for thousands of years for use in transportation, labor, and ritual. In Thailand, Elephants are of immense cultural importance, but their numbers are shockingly plummeting. In 1905, there were over 100,000 elephants in this land - now they are estimated at less than 5,000, of which barely half are in the wild. (Photo by Logan Mock-Bunting)

  • Kristen gives one of the pigs, Alf, a hug two days before the animals are sent to slaughter. Before working on the farm, Kristin was vegan, not eating meat or animal products. Sending the pigs to slaughter was very upsetting to her.

  • A school of Manta Rays feeds, gliding with open mouths through cloudy, plankton rich water off the coast of Panama. Such unexpected wonders are one of the main reasons free-diving is so appealing - with no bubbles from scuba tanks to scare off animals, a careful free-diver can get closer to easily frightened fish and wildlife..(Photo by Logan Mock-Bunting) logan@scott-free.com

  • Bangkok, Thailand - FEB 17 2006: A young elephant almost collides with a car on the streets of Bangkok. The official reason "domesticated" elephants are illegal in cities is because they are involved in so many traffic accidents. City life is terrible for the elephant - they can eat between 250 - 525 pounds of food a day in the wild - about six to eight percent of their own body weight in vegetation each day. To accomplish this, they spend as many as 18 hours per day feeding. These massive animals can drink 26 gallons (100 liters) of water at one time and, when thirsty, more than 55 gallons (208 liters) within minutes. Obviously, city life is not friendly to these needs. Asian elephants - strong, social, and intelligent - have been trained for thousands of years for use in transportation, labor, and ritual.
