Caring for animals transcends culture, language, gender and religion - Similar to what is stated above, when we help animals we are not focusing on personal distinctions. In all countries and cultures, there will always be people trying to do the right thing for animals. During the week I volunteered at the Elephant Nature Park in Chiangmai, Thailand, I came across wonderful people from Asia, Europe, North and Central America. Some were in their late seventies, others in their twenties. My roommate was muslim. One of the other volunteers Hindu. Some were single, others came with their spouse and children. Our background becomes irrelevant. Helping animals transcends our personal history.
