No bullhooks, always loose, not forcing them and actually a lot of space? That sounds better than all other circuses.

Unlike in Europe, I don't think the Ankus or "bullhook" is required by federal organizations, like our USDA. The USDA requires Elephant trainers to have an Ankus when handling elephants around public. and Not everyone uses the Bullhook in an abusive way either as the tool originated in India actually and was merely a Guide, like how we use leashes as a guide for dogs. There is many animal husbandry tools that give people potential to misuse them. I've been to circuses here in the US and handlers carry the "bullhook" but never misuse them - The abusing of the bullhook mostly happened in like the 50s through 70s and now people are trained professionally how to use the Ankus properly, which is communicating with the elephant through touch, not brutality. I know for a fact that in this decade if a handler is found harming an elephant with it, They are fired and blacklisted from getting employees by other circuses. but of course, organizations like PETA will not clear this up because as long as everybody thinks EVERY handler abuses elephants because they hold a Ankus - They get attention and donations. Always look into things and not believe everything thats shared on the internet.

Yes. I looked into it and the american vetrinary assocition sais the bull hooks are used as guides. Yes there are cases where they have been abused, but it seems very rare. Ive heard some contriversial things about peta including claims that they euthinize thousands of puppies and kittens

You don’t really need to use any of those all you have to do is get the animals to use their natural instinct then they willingly do the tricks

@@bloodytalonz1138 I have seen animals abused by bullhooks and other tools with my own eyes, I then promised myself to never pay to see animals in circus or any sketchy show ever again. I'd rather encourage the Grandby Zoo, which has enclosures that are astonishingly large and full or enrichment, for animals that were rescued from roadside zoos, circuses and other abusive situations or are in programs to educate as well as to reintroduce endangered species in their natural habitat. Seems more fair to the animals than teaching them tricks and using them as props - not to say that it's abusive in every case, but it's only my personal feeling regarding species we commonly see in circuses.

i love the way the elephants are treated & respected by Rene, heart warming.
It's cute how he plays and cares for them.
What a beautiful human he is! I hope he can start instructing others on how to treat the elephants! I almost think they love to work... because they are such intelligent animals!
I'm not at all into zoos, but that, I can deal with. It is done with respect.

Those are happy, healthy, and very loved elephants. I appreciate this young man being so vocal on his loving unique relationship with these magnificent creatures. And the love that the elephants have for him also is very apparent, they're all so comfortable and affectionate with him. Not to mention flappy ears! A flappy eared elephant is a happy elephant! Life is more beautiful with elephants and people like this young man.
Wow!!! I'm impressed. Plus I love elephants
I seriously adore elephants, they’re so cute!! Seeing this video makes me so happy and you can easily see the elephants and the owner has for one and another. They’re in a good place and they’re not getting treated badly which sadly is the case for some countries.

These elephants are extremely well cared for and will most likely have a longer life with these people than they would in the wild.
See elephants can be trained with love like puppies😄😄😄!!!
He actually treats them really well, plus the tricks he does are super awesome, he must of done gymnastics before he became an elephant trainer, he makes sure that (Idk if he said in the video or not) the gate to their enclosure is closed so they don’t escape (elephants are truly escape artists)
Clicker trained elephants, this is the way it should have always been done. So beautiful.
Litterally the only elephant show i will watch. I wish everyone would do this. i really do.

Amazing guy and I respect his respect for animals
In the wild the elephants are under a tremendous amount of stress constantly, so being captive in the most humain, loving and caring way is definitely a good break for the elephants, they're like celebrities the equivalent to being in the wealthy top 1% in the elephant world. That man is flexible ☺☺
I love this! The guy is treating them well! I heard a saying that goes like this : to get a donkey to move you can use a carrot or a stick! Most places like circuses and zoos use the stick! But he used a carrot (or peanut)!

I'm absolutely against animals in circuses but he treats them so well, lets them live in a proper way and only takes them inside for the shows and that has my respect. You can see how much they love him and that they're healthy and happy and like family to him. Truly heartwarming. He is very protective and makes sure they have enough space everywhere they go. I bet when training they're like "Dunno why you want me to do this but I love you hooman so I'll play along".
I would say from what I seen from behind the scenes and how well actually them elephants really taken care of in the way that they look if I died and came back as a elephant when you take me in I would love to live with you that's so awesome I would even love to meet them elephants at just so awesome

Those elephants sure like they love him. Elephants are very intelligent and love to have fun and play social games and pranks. I am curious to know how he deals with male elephants in musk or if he only keeps female elephants. I don't think any child raised to love elephants and grow up and spend his life with them would wish them harm. This guy seems genuine.
best video
bravissimo.
All circuses should legally have to be this good to their animals. This is a circus i'd be happy to see.

If it's anything like training lions or tigers or bears (oh my) the rod is used as a focus grabber. Sort of like a conductor's baton. The trainer moves it to get the animal to focus on it, which is why it was used during the choreography 'trick' with the elephants spinning around and laying down.

I think they are just just tusk protecters. I dont think these elephants would ever hurt anyone on purpose, but it does seem like a good idea to put balls on the end of them especially if you are tumbling around them. You could mess up and fall onto the tusk and end up scratched.
