a close up of an elephant's face with its tusks curled up

This photo was taken in a reservatory in Thailand, more specifically Chiang Mai. I love this photo because in this place they actually take care of elephants that are abandoned or rescued from various circus and other places where they exploit elephant ridings and other services for tourists. It makes me feel relieved to know they have no more scars from their past and can be free to be what they are: elephants.
