The footage we captured is 'shocking',
@kartick_wildsos told me.

Kartick and
@WildlifeSOS want to raise awareness so UK and other tourists stop fuelling the demand for these sorts of 'attractions'. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/asia/elephants-pointed-sticks-goa-india-resort-uk-tourists-wildlife-sos-a8458771.html …pic.twitter.com/Ne53MjBCna
