bubbles+ elephants = cruelty OR "science"?

if you know me, you know i have a very soft spot and deep love of living things that are not human...as opposed to my not-so-deep love for some living things that are human.

so, in orange county, there has been some controversy over an exhibit that is taking place, performance art style, at the DISCOVERY SCIENCE CENTRE, and it makes me sad.

i don't know how i should be feeling about this, especially if Tai, the elephant, is being well-cared for, overall. i simply don't trust humans and their motives sometimes. all this being said, i thought i would share this with you:
