Tyke, the violent death of a circus elephant
After years of abuse (inherent with circuses), Tyke escaped from a circus, killing her 'trainer' before running out the door to get outside, then she was shot to death by police. She was shot nearly 100 times and it took two hours for her to die on the street. She had a miserable life and a slow, painful death. At least she would never be abused or suffer again.
Disturbing video.

I HOPE CIRCUSES WITH ANIMALS ESPECIALLY ELEPHANTS ARE NEVER ALLOWED IN HAWAII
ReplyDeleteMakes you wonder who is the animal.
ReplyDeleteThis is so horrifying. Why can't we DO something about this!!! I'm sick of all the web discussion. We need to do something. Together!
ReplyDeleteil faut savoir q'un éléphant de la sorte s'énerve facilement et donc il est préférable de ne pas s'en approcher et de courir le plus vite possible! mais sa ma choquer malade de voir cette éléphant mourir sous les caméras . le plus horrible se sont c'est 3(ou 4) coup de feu ou l'élephant résiste et a confiance à luis
ReplyDeletej'éspere qu'à l'avenir , les homme réfléchirons avant de tuer un élephant ....
poor tyke but the trainers got what they deserved!
ReplyDeletefuck human beings :*(
ReplyDeletei think wat they did to tyke is so disgusting if they didnt abuse her all her life an retire her the first couple of times then maybe it wouldn't have happened pathetic cruel people
ReplyDeleteImagine, imagine with all your heart & soul....after viewing numerous documentaries & hidden videos what would ever cross a human's mind to think that blunt force negative reinforcement would ever in their wildest dreams result in self defense on this poor animals rights! In the end, because of "painful infliction" brought upon by human's his/hers whole life would end in the punishment of the wrong species! I have no sympathy for the trainor; I hope he felt every jolt he received. I AM NOT THE ONE WHO IS WRONG HERE & I HAVE A CLEAR CONSCIENCE! These animals are deemed "wild" for a reason and have more right to run free in their own habitat. This is what God wants.
ReplyDeleteif ppl would stop treating animals like they are justed another type of meat or sumthing i do belive that this poor animal had no life but pain an suffering it kills me an makes me sick to watch this video i think that they could have tranq her an took to another ppl image all the kids an ppl who watched this in person if we can treat these grentle animals like this what would happend if our kids where to get out of line or the edlery would we shoot them a 100 times or more cause they did sumthing wrong ppl should thank about that the next time want to hurt animal.
ReplyDeleteMy sister was there the day before this happened. It's so sad... To think that most people just blame the "crazy" animal. It drives me insane!
ReplyDeleteDisguting people, they dont deserve to have amazing animals within a foot of them, im glad the trainer is dead at the price of poor tyke well at least the elephant is in no more pain.
ReplyDeleteCircuses with animals should be banned all over the world, its a disgrace.
Absolutely heart breaking.. it's fine that countless amounts of animals are dying because of our actions everyday but as soon as one of our own die, we result to killing the poor creatures. How would you feel trapped and ridiculed like that! That elephant is actually a hero and I'm inspired by her courage. At least she doesn't have to suffer anymore. Humans just have soo much power that's why we get away with half the stuff we do!! *rant rant rant* sorry but YEAH this is TRAGIC!
ReplyDeletePuny Humans!
ReplyDeleteSo very sad :'( Why must we try to hurt or kill all that we love the most Namaste You are in a better place now sweet angel RIP.
ReplyDeleteThat whole scenario is truly unbelievable. All that elephant ever wanted was to be free and left alone. I hope all circuses die out fast from this sick planet.
ReplyDeleteque malditos hijos de puta el solo queria cer libre malditos uniformados y los demas que le dispararon ..
ReplyDeleteSo sad to see such a beautiful animal killed because of bad humans =( R.i.P
ReplyDeleteI hope Tyke wherever she now is will be happy forever. I'm glad to hear she took her revenge and killed for who where responsible for her misery.
ReplyDeleteMistreatment to animals is disgusting and It's only an amount of time before animals being treated like that snap, and when they do they're a danger to the general public. You bully a big animal like that into being something it's not and you've created a monster...the trainers got what they deserved!
ReplyDeleteSimply DO NOT mistreat animals and they wont turn violent, in fact they can be one of your best friends.
PLEASE STOP ALL ANIMAL ABUSE AND MURDERS NOW!
ReplyDeletePoor poor Tyke .... elephants don't belong in circusses nor in ZOO's ... they should roam the wide plains in Africa....
ReplyDeletePoor poor Tyke .. at least they can not hurt you no longer....
I feel more for tyke, the abuse circus animals are subjected to is obviously unbearable for them. R.I.P.
ReplyDeleteNem kellene cirkuszi mutatványokra használni az állatokat!
ReplyDeleteKibaszott emberek!
il faut être sans coeur pour faire ce genre de massacre ! mais pourquoi les gens continuent ils d'aller cautionner les cirques ?! boycottez tout simplement les cirques qui utilisent des animaux sauvages pour leurs spectacles, c'est tout simple ! opposez vous à ce genre de maltraitance !
