A documentary directed by Jeff Boucher – now streaming on Amazon Prime Video – tells the story behind the valiant efforts to stop the use of bullhooks and tasers in Elephant Training.
Hosted by world renowned animal trainers Thad and Angi Lacinak and featuring film and TV stars Beverly D’Angelo and Carolyn Hennessy, ETITR shows the amazing results achieved through the use of Positive-Reinforcement training techniques.
The impact of the film proved to be so powerful, the AZA credits it with their decision to back the ban of using bullhooks in zoos throughout the U.S.
