I am a five-year-old elephant. When I was a baby, I lived in the wild with my parents. But some hunters(猎人) killed my mother. And they caught me. They sold me to this circus(马戏团)and a train carried me here.

I was born in a large family. My mother was the head of the family. As you might know, when a female is born into the family, she never leaves. Closely and happily, we travel together, eat together, play together and sleep together. When I was in the family, my mother and my sisters looked after me carefully. I played happily with all the other elephants. Now I miss them.

You enjoy watching my wonderful tricks. To make you laugh, I have to perform 8 hours a day. But you don’t ask yourself. “How did they make that elephant stand on his head?” I never stand on my head in the wild. I don’t enjoy any of the tricks. I perform tricks because they make me do this or that. And still I hear you want to see me because you love me. But you are thinking about yourselves—what you want, what you like. Please think about me. If you love me, give me what I need. I need to be free, and to be with my family. And you can watch me on videos， DVDs and Web pages.
