32、lionaire playboyBFor centuries, in the countries of South and Southeast Asia, the elephant has been an important part of the culture, economy and religion. And nowhere more so than in ThailandUnlike its African cousin, the Asian elephant is easily domesticated（驯化）. The rare so-called white elephants

33、 have actually lent the power of royalty to its rulers，and until the 1920s the national flag was a white elephant on a red background. To the early Western visitors, the countrys romantic name was “Land of the White Elephant”Today, however, the story is very different. Out of work and out of land, t

34、he Thai elephant struggles for survival in a nation that no longer needs it. The elephant has found itself more or less deserted by previous owners who have moved on to a different economic world and a society in the western part. And while the elephants problems began many years ago, now it has a v

This deforestation（采伐森林） is the central point of the elephants difficult situation, for it has effectively put the animals out
