T.O.F.U. Talks: Ethical Elephant Tours
Travelling in any way can be hard when one tries to live ethically, but adding animals into the mix is rarely ever a good option. For this episode of the T.O.F.U. Talks series, I was lucky enough to chat face-to-face with Jodi Thomas while in Northern Thailand. With over a decade of experience in animal rescue, and a focus around elephants, Jodi had plenty to say about the complications that arise when people want to include elephants in their vacations.
