World Animal Protection Retires Amer Fort's Riding Elephants, Honors Jane Goodall
World Animal Protection has paid tribute to the late Jane Goodall, a renowned primatologist and conservationist, while mourning her passing. The organisation has also taken steps to retire the riding elephants of Amer Fort to a suitable wildlife-friendly sanctuary, following a campaign led by over 100 children from Cambridge School, Srinivaspuri.
World Animal Protection, celebrating its 75th anniversary, has been instrumental in advocating for animals in various situations, including wildlife in entertainment and factory farms. The organisation engages with schools to sensitize students about these issues, as seen in their collaboration with Cambridge School to equip the riding elephants in Amer Fort, Jaipur with a more suitable habitat.
Gajender Kumar Sharma, Country Director of World Animal Protection in India, praised the children's initiative. The children, realizing that elephants are wild creatures meant to be cherished in their natural habitats, wrote to the Prime Minister of India to end elephant rides in Amer Fort. World Animal Protection supports this campaign to stop cruelty to elephants in Amer Fort, Jaipur. The organisation also highlights the risk of zoonotic diseases from wildlife exploitation and intensive factory farming.
World Animal Protection's tribute to Jane Goodall reflects their commitment to animal welfare. Their efforts to retire the riding elephants of Amer Fort and the children's campaign underscore their dedication to ending animal cruelty in entertainment. Jaipur, known for its historical and cultural experiences, can now offer these attractions without harming animals.
