Jenny has released a strip about an elephant working in a tourist ride, which raises awareness of animal cruelty
Jenny believes that “if more tourists knew how elephants are tortured to make them submissive, perhaps fewer people would support these ‘attractions.'” The artist stated that following the publishing of this comic, she received numerous responses from people admitting to have ridden elephants in the past. “They had no idea how these animals were ‘trained,'” she stated.

Jenny admits that the entire process of painting such awful stories is pretty distressing. “Conducting research about the issue in question is always depressing enough, but when I sketch out the storyboard, a few tears run down my cheeks, too,”
According to World Animal Protection, the number of people wanting to ride elephants for entertainment has increased. According to the BBC, the number of elephants abducted from the wild and held in captivity has increased by about one-third in the previous five years.
In 2016, WAP examined 3000 elephants residing in Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Sri Lanka, Nepal, and parts of India. They discovered that only 200 of them were kept in suitable captivity conditions. According to Dr. Jan Schmidt-Burbach, worldwide wildlife and veterinary consultant at World Animal Protection (WAP), “We want tourists to know that many of these elephants are taken from their mothers as babies, forced to endure harsh training, and suffer poor living conditions throughout their life.”
