I’ve ridden elephants before. It was actually quite fun. (Except that one time the mahout got off to take a photo and the elephant went rogue with me still on the back and I thought I was going to die and that was slightly less fun.) But now that I’m not such a massive, ignorant fuckwit, I would never ride an elephant. In fact, now I tell anyone who will listen how shitty it is. How bad it is for them. And how elephants should be allowed to just be elephants. Because… obviously. If you’re with me on this one, this Tshirt is for you. Because let’s be honest, awesome people don’t ride elephants.
$5 from the sale of each Tshirt will go towards an elephant sanctuary – possibly MandaLao Elephant Conservation in Laos or the Mondulkiri Project in Cambodia. (I’m going to visit there in January and will make my decision then.)
