Description: "This analysis tries to associate the connection between elephant activity budget and its influence on identifying welfare status of elephants in captivity. This analysis assumes that the welfare of an elephant cannot be seen in solitary and that understanding the interactions between an elephant and its mahout may offer deeper insights on the elephant’s welfare status."
