Thai elephants are "unemployed". What is the current situation of tourism in Thailand in 2022?

Elephants in Thailand are very famous all over the world. If conditions permit, tourists from all over the world will come to Thailand to watch elephant performances. Elephants in Thailand can be said to be a very attractive tourism industry in Thailand, but the COVID-19 epidemic is raging all over the world. Affected by the epidemic, tourism around the world has fallen sharply, and Thailand has not been spared. In 2022, Thailand's tourism development ushered in an unprecedented trough, and these popular elephants also faced unemployment.

As we all know, the elephant is a very clever animal. Although it is very big, it is still very good. Many elephants are very human and can interact well with human beings. After some manual training, these elephants can not only provide wonderful performances for human beings, but also play with tourists on their backs in scenic spots. Thai elephants are loved by tourists all over the world. You must see Thai elephants when you travel to Thailand.

Round after round of outbreaks in COVID-19, the world can't return to normal without lampblack, especially in Thailand. These once busy elephants are facing unemployment and can only stay at home, and elephant owners can't get normal business income. Elephants eat a huge amount of food every day. An elephant can eat very expensive food every day. If elephants can't function normally, their owners can't get life. A large part of these elephants need to starve at home. Moreover, there will be more and more domesticated elephants after breeding, which means that elephant owners have to bear a greater burden.

Thailand's economic development itself is not very good, and it is far from enough to rely solely on the support of the national team and consumers. The international market has played a very important role. International tourists cannot travel to Thailand because of the epidemic, so Thailand's tourism industry is facing great difficulties and challenges.
