Unless something changed... many of the Elephants at the two golden triangle resorts are rescued from poor conditions. They also sponsor The Golden Triangle Asian Elephant Foundation. Elephants & tourists in Thailand don't mix everywhere, but these resorts are hardly part of the problem.

Exactly so. They are rescued elephants, and their Mahouts (owners) are there by choice. It's highly beneficial for the elephants and all others involved.
