Oh !! What a Life !! Photo and Text by Siri
The relationship between the elephant and it's handler (mahout) is indeed very profound. There are many stories about how elephants take revenge for mistreatment and how they stand by their friend and caretaker if they are treated well. A good elephant and a good mahout stay together their whole life, always taking care of each other. The mahout, at the end of a hard day, will always make sure that the elephant is well settled in with enough food and water, before he will sit down to have his own evening meal.
