20.Students usually have two long holidays a year,but have you heard elephants have holidays?
The Indian elephants from a temple are sent on a north-long holiday with massages(按摩) and baths to relax.The 64elephants will be fed with a lot of food,enough for them to put on 700~800pounds.
A temple veterinarian said that those Indian elephants would be treated after spending a month walking on roads,living on leaves and bananas and giving shows during lots of temple festivals.Their daily diet includes special rice and other special food,which are very nutritious and can make them healthy and strong.All of these are made by professional people.
This treatment will also calm them down ahead of a busy work schedule in upcoming events later in the year where they are the main attractions.The special holiday has cost the temple about£12,500,but extra money is ready for being used to treat the animals.
Indians believe that doing something good to elephants can help them get wisdom and power.Having elephants is a traditional symbol of honor for temples across southern India.All temples,however,never buy their elephants.The elephants were donated by people.
