Down Under Answers Stops Offering Elephant Rides
After hearing from PETA, Down Under Answers—which operates Africa Answers and Asia Answers—confirmed that none of its brands would offer elephant rides on any tours.
“Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather, and going to circuses and zoos. We never considered the impact of these actions on the animals involved. For whatever reason, you are now asking the question: Why should animals have rights?”
— Ingrid E. Newkirk, PETA President and co-author of Animalkind
