#甜在清邁:洗象、餵象、被大象噴泥巴Part I
我到清邁一個月,大部分活動範圍都在古城,眼看就要離開了,覺得好像要做點什麼不一樣的。但網路上常被分享的活動,例如拜縣啊、清萊啊、叢林飛越啊,我要嘛覺得太遠不想去,就是覺得興趣不高。
之前聽到清邁有救援大象的團體,把長期給觀光客騎乘、被奴役、做馬戲團的大象搶救下來安置,也開放讓人進來幫忙大象洗澡、餵食,搖身一變成為新型態的觀光活動。
我之前心裡一直有個疑問,這樣不也是把大象當觀光財嗎?只是從騎乘變成餵牠和幫牠洗澡,雖然後者的確舒服多了,但不也是在利用牠們嗎?
不過後來上網做了一下功課,卻覺得其實也可以理解──畢竟救援動物需要錢,又不能野放回叢林,還是需要人照顧、餵食(大象一天十幾個小時都在吃東西,食量非常驚人)、人力、甚至醫療。
這些都需要錢,不可能只靠不穩定的捐款維持,但「不騎大象,改幫大象洗澡」成為新型態的觀光後,各國湧入的旅客會用大象相對舒適的方式接觸大象,園區也可以趁機教育人們動物保護意識,觀光客付錢付得心甘情願,救援行動的財務也無虞,而成為新產業之後,也才能夠說服更多的大象主人放棄奴役大象,投入動物保護行列。
在理解了背後的緣由之後,我放心上網做功課,最後鎖定數一數二知名的"Elephant Nature Park",簡稱ENP,預定一日體驗行程。
不過比較特別的是,因為我是現場去ENP辦公室洽詢細節的,他們告訴我網路上很知名的"Elephant Nature Park - Single Day"這個方案,雖然園區大、大象的數量也多,一次能容許參加的人數也很多,但現在改成只能看、準備食物、餵食而已,原本的洗澡和玩泥巴已經取消了。
但我之前看部落客分享是都可以的,就詢問他們什麼時候改的?他們說是今年才改的,因為人數太多,已經對大象造成太大干擾,有時候大象不想洗澡,還要勉強牠們配合遊客,這樣有違救援的初衷,所以他們才改成新方案,現在只能讓遊客拍照和餵食而已。
聽到ENP這麼重視動物的感受,頓時更覺得安心不少。工作人員接著很熱心地跟我說,牠們跟附近的象園Elephant Trail也有合作,已經納入同一個救援系統,裡面的大象也是曾經服勞役的大象,而那個園區的方案是小團體制、對大象的干擾比較少,所以行程可以摸大象、餵食、跟大象一起洗泥巴浴,也可以跟大象在山林裡走一段路,一樣也是2500泰/天。
幸好有現場打聽,我才改選"Elephant Trail-Single Day"這個特別的方案,中文資料好像比較沒人提起,所以可能因為這樣,當天除了我一個亞洲人以外,其他全部是歐美人士。
順帶一提,如果之後有考慮ENP這個體系的,可以考慮選擇Elephant Trail的方案哦!
***
回歸正題,這支影片的拍的時候,正在跟大象一起漫步在山林小徑,結果因為天氣太熱,大象一看到泥巴就衝下去噴水了XDD
馬上被噴了一身泥巴,不過跟歐美人士同團有個好處,無論男女都很友善,熱愛大自然,不怕曬不怕濕不怕髒,甚至行程結束後還跳下湖游泳(可惜我生理期不行QQ)算是給我這個唯一落單的女生很好的出遊回憶。
不過我幹嘛一直跟大象說英文呢,又不是講給人聽的,講泰文牠們才聽得懂吧XD(我看工作人員還會掀起大象耳朵跟牠們說悄悄話呢)

荔枝窩是香港數百年歷史的地質公園,具特殊科學價值。但「新荔枝窩自然步道」嚴重破壞自然生態 。步道工程也揭示了一連串的問題,包括工程缺乏公眾諮詢、計劃透明度低,政府相關各部門的政策協調、溝通及監管不足,也缺乏對生態保育意識,等等。詳情可參與聯署信的內容。
本關注在此發出聯署信,希望集合社會大眾力量提出對事件的嚴正關注,要求政府重視問題的嚴重性,積極研究補救方案,緩解工程的影響;並重新審視及完善現有工程政策,以防止事件再次發生。請各位用行動支持,一同簽署此聯署信,多人聯署令信件更具說服力。

Lai Chi Wo is part of the Hong Kong Global Geopark, well-known for its breathtaking scenery and ancient vegetation. It is designated by the Hong Kong government as a Site of Specific Scientific Interest (SSSI). Unfortunately, the current government enhancement/construction project taking place at the boardwalk inside the Lai Chi Wo Nature Trail and the Sam A Tsuen viewing platform have been constructed with concrete instead of natural materials. Roots of precious trees with great historical and ecological value were chopped and concrete columns were built there crushing the roots. All these reflect the lack of policy, supervision, coordination, conservation awareness and transparency on the part of the government.
The Concern Group would like to urge government departments to put in place immediate solutions, and scrutinize existing policies and practices so that the same will not happen again. Please join us by signing this petition letter. The more signatures we gather, the stronger our petition could be! We need your support!
The petition deadline is on Tue, 22nd Aug. Please share to your friends! Thanks!

Against better judgment and all possible safety regulations, I once again got tricked into checking out an extremely dangerous mountain hike in Taiwan. This time it was New Taipei City's Sanxia Wu Liao Jian (五寮尖).
Although I do NOT recommend anyone to actually check out this hike, I recommend EVERYONE to check out this video and the drone footage in the end which shows the insane climb down after spending around 2 hours climbing up the mountain using nothing but ropes, blood, sweat and tears.
Please share this video with everyone you think should check out the beautiful nature of Taiwan, and please let me know what you think we should check out next!
