Vigil For Elephants Who Died In Captivity in 2022

Every year Vigil4Elephants raises awareness of the captive elephants that have passed away in zoos, circuses, sanctuaries, and temples.

These sentient beings who were taken from their family in the wild are forced to live a life exploited and abused for human entertainment.

From the beginning of 2022 to date, 50 captive elephants have passed away, including a calf.

Knowing these elephants did not live a life in freedom and not surrounded by love and compassion only makes the grief more palpable.

On January 14, 2023, Vigil4Elephants is hosting a worldwide vigil to honor the lives of these sentient creatures.

Please join on that day to honor the preciousness of their existence and support a future where there will no longer be a captive elephant.

You can learn more about the vigil by visiting Vigil4Elephants on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
