Mahouts and their elephants

I already wrote about the destiny of Asian mahouts in my set "Isaan". There is a hard way of life for the mahouts due the modern land machines replaces the need of the elephants to work. The only income for most mahouts is the business with tourists. Here we met the mahouts with the elephants on the highway no. 4 coming out the forest doing their work as their do it since a long time.
