The elephant Tai was caught in Zimbabwe and transported to the United States to work in a circus. In 1994, after 20 years of captivity and torture, Tai's patience reached its limit in Honolulu, where she broke through the barriers of the ring and quickly headed for the exit. She chased clowns and trainers, overturned cars and then broke out into the streets to escape from slavery.

They were made harder so that no one, God forbid, would be killed. But they also jogged around calmly.
