The big tusker in the background is "Daddy Elephant" - a very unfriendly and un-neutered bull kept solely for breading purposes. One of the nearby females was in estress (sp?) and big guy was going crazy - and having him where he was probably dangerous for anyone nearby.

Btw - that's the "Big Buddha of Phuket" on top of the highest mountain in this pic - see next email for details.
Thai Buddhism is founded on "3 jewels": Buddha, Dhamma (teaching), and Sangha (monk). Thai (and perhaps all) Buddhists' Dhamma (teachings) say that "To see him is to know him". It is because of this dhamma that you see so many, many Buddha statues.
