Free at last: Elephant 'cries' while being rescued after 50 years of abuse and being kept in chains

good for u, now can you find me the rape statistics of India too?
"Statistics" cannot be compared since both countries have different laws for rape. But if you're really interested in this, both countries are _WAY_ better then most developed countries. But again these are "Police" recorded ones.

Interestingly, in India, as per recent cases, if a guy had sex with a girl with assurance to marry her at later stage, can be counted as rape if the guy refused to marry in the future. So, rape can be proved if girl can show any SMS, FB chat etc.

Again, In Pakistan, No rapes would be recognized if no witness is present at the time of rape. Basically, in Pakistan, you're good if you follow these steps:
1. Find a target.
2. Wait till nobody is around.
3. Rape and walk away happily.
4.(Rarely needed) _IF_ the victim goes to court, ask her to bring witness. Even if she is sharp minded and goes for DNA test, court will still rule it in favor of guy.

Before you ask me for proof, sorry I can't post links because of low post count. But surely, google for "Rape statistics wiki" check out the first wikipedia link.

when will humans understand, we don't own the earth !! These animals existed before us, at-least give them a place to live !!
Heart goes out for that elephant

Someone over there should have branded him in the face with a hot iron. Freaking PIGS who treat animals as if they are some soulless,feeling less and emotion less beings. Glad somebody took the initiative to save the poor animals. Soo many of them are suffering right now. We need more heroic stuff like that./

I think that should be the case everywhere, a guy can ruin a girls life with such promises. Especially in our culture no would want to marry a girl that has been 'used'. She has a legitimate case.

An elephant that was kept in chains for 50 years and abused by a drug addict who used the animal to beg has been freed.

Raju had been beaten and starved since being poached from the wild as a baby and resorted to eating paper and plastic to fill his stomach.

The chains and spikes wrapped around his legs had left him with chronic wounds and arthritis and he was in almost constant pain.

But now he is walking free for the first time after a daring rescue by conservationists with a court order by the Uttar Pradesh Forest Department to take the elephant from his abusive owner.

The charity took Raju in the middle of the night on Thursday, supported by police and state officials.

The elephant's mahout and previous owner tried to stop him being taken by adding more chains and having people block the roads for the rescue lorry.

Experts worked for hours to gain the elephant's trust with fruit and encouragement until they could get him into the van that would take him to a sanctuary.

When Raju was being rescued, volunteers said they saw tears rolling down his face.

Pooja Binepal, from Wildlife SOS UK, said: "The team were astounded to see tears roll down his face during the rescue. It was so incredibly emotional for all of us.

"We knew in our hearts he realized he was being freed.

"Elephants are not only majestic, but they are highly intelligent animals, who have been proven to have feelings of grief, so we can only imagine what torture half a century has been like for him."

Kartick Satyanarayan, the charity's co-founder, said the mahout tried to make the elephant charge by shouting commands.

He added: "We stood our ground and refused to back down - and as we did so, tears began to roll down Raju's face.

"Some no doubt were due to the pain being inflicted by the chains, but he also seemed to sense that change was coming.

"It was as if he felt hope for the first time in a very long time."

Almost two days later and 350 miles away in Mathura, the chains were removed after 45 painstaking minutes.

A video showed the moment they cut the painful spikes and chains binding the animal's legs so he could walk freely for the first time.

Satyanarayan said: "We all had tears in our eyes as the last rope which held the final spike was cut and Raju took his first steps of freedom."

Other elephants at the Conservation and Care Centre at Mathura came to watch the new arrival.

He is being fed to restore him to a healthy weight and vets are treating his many wounds and abscesses from beatings and chains.

Rescuers at Wildlife SOS believe Raju started life in the wild but was caught as a baby by poachers and sold as a working elephant.

Binepal said: "The poachers either slaughter the mother, or they drive the herd into traps that are small enough only for the babies to fall into. The mother cries for her baby for days after he's been stolen - it is a sickening trade.

"The calves are then tied and beaten until they submit to their owners - their spirits are effectively broken."

Great...now you are equating the girls with used things..

Not just girls, everyone and everything gets "used." If you are taken for a ride, you are used. Do not go hyperfeminist on a woman who is in all probability a feminist herself.
