Yes no one get arrested in the UK for horse racing! Training Hoses! Ultimately killing them when injured. And selling the old horses to be slaughtered (for pet food) in Europe.
Yes Mr Amarakoon. Doing two wrong things does not make it right. What right one can have (specially a so called Buddhist monk) to posses a elephant or any other calf against its mothers will. Animals have emotions well. Just imagine a mother feel when her baby is wiped out and never to be seen again. This is cruelty to animals and should be severely dealt with.
