I stayed in a quaint guest house run by a trust worthy family; I think they legitimately believed it was a nice place. It wasn't from some random dude on the street.

I didn't donate to the elephant sanctuary but I would be interested in donating to your women's sanctuary.

While traveling in India I went to an "elephant sanctuary" in Jaipur. On principle I'm against the idea of elephant ride companies but the sanctuary was built up really nicely by people I had met. They swore it was a real sanctuary where they were well kept, rehabilitated, and released. They also said that the government of Rajasthan takes elephant conservation very seriously.

However when I showed up it was disgusting and I left. I took some pictures of some of the conditions with the intent to report them to what I still believed was a very involved Rajasthani government.

Is there any way to report these to a real authority or do the Indian elephant sanctuaries practice with enough autonomy to not care?
