Abstract: | Man used elephants in various ways. We find elephants in mythology, symbolism, religion, and popular culture. Moreover, they are used in popular entertainment in modern times; elephants have a major role in entertainment in Indian society such as film, circus, sports, festival procession, jungle safari, zoos, magic shows, children’s ride events, and the like. This paper tries to find out the abuse of elephants behind the entertainment and the legal measures taken to prevent this. |
