Retiring elephants 退休大象

文字稿:

They're not the healthiest specimens of the ten thousand that live in Burma.

The owners have brought in these healthy elephants to boost funding for food and medicine through tourism.

They say visitors should see them in their natural habitat and not as creatures of entertainment.
