The Elephant In Siem Reap Was Unconscious and Died Later

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

This pisses me off.

When will we learn that elephants are majestic creatures and need protecting not used to bring in the tourist dollar.

^^^Bang on. I never have and never will ride an elephant. I don't see the point. Of course, having had to ride work horses from time to time long ago, I definitely can't recommend riding any animal just for recreation purposes.

Very sad photos.

Is it overly hot for the season in SR right now ? There was also the case of the colony of bats who all died, presumably of heat also ?
