Elephants at Woburn Wild Animal Kingdom
That this House congratulates The Mail on Sunday for exposing the torment of the two elephants Ghandia and Maya at Woburn Wild Animal Kingdom run by the Chipperfield Organisation where it is reported that the two elephants are imprisoned for 24 hours each day in an old barn behind an electric barrier and boarded windows with chains restraining two legs and so unable to take any exercise; and furthermore calls upon the Chipperfield Organisation to bring about the end of this downright cruelty and asks that Ghandia and Maya are released from their ordeal immediately.
