Dear friends, Two endangered Borneo pygmy elephants, including a four-year-old calf, have died at Lok Kawi Wildlife Park in the past two months. The rest of the elephants are kept chained by two feet, including one that appears to be severely emaciated. And yet, zoo management and public officials refuse to acknowledge that there is a problem. Sign Malaysia Friends of the Animals' petition to demand that Lok Kawi Wildlife Park take immediate action to improve the lives of the animals under their care. The elephants aren't the only animals at the zoo that are suffering. Newly released photographs of the facility show sun bears kept in cages littered with feces, and tigers confined to tiny, moldy enclosures. The python cage is filthy and also way too small. Unfortunately, Lok Kawi Wildlife Park is used to house rescue animals, so it can't be shut down. But it can expand and improve its facilities so that the animals are given large, clean enclosures with enrichment opportunities. And they can also stop breeding and importing new animals. Sign this petition to demand that government officials require the Lok Kawi Wildlife Park to stop adding more animals to its collection, and instead use their resources to dramatically improve enclosures for their current animals. Thank you,   Lacey K. The Care2 Petitions Team P.S. These animals are suffering, and the local government is turning a blind eye. Sign the petition to make sure Lok Kawi Wildlife Park isn't allowed to get away with animal neglect and abuse just because they take in rescue animals.
