@AnnieSong62 @GlobalElephants Ah..I think the word you are looking for is ‘old.’ I don’t use x much except for professional promotion :)

[Dr Michelle Szydlowski @MichSzyd]

@NoShoesMon @GlobalElephants You are welcome! Thanks for reading.

[Dr Michelle Szydlowski @MichSzyd]

@AnnieSong62 @GlobalElephants Forgot to say that you can check out my Google scholar profile, or see a list of my publications at https://t.co/A19aXWqpNN. I am curious which part of my profile struck you as sketchy? I am here to answer questions as needed. Have a great day!

[Dr Michelle Szydlowski @MichSzyd]

@AnnieSong62 @GlobalElephants Hi! I have been researching elephants in tourism for over a decade. I have a PhD and teach at a university. My book on Nepal tourism just came out in February. I believe that elephants don’t belong in riding tourism. Any other questions :). Happy to answer them.

[Dr Michelle Szydlowski @MichSzyd]

Elephant tourism often involves cruelty – here are steps toward more humane, animal-friendly excursions https://t.co/35lwIDcq82 via @ConversationUS @aip_conference @TheAnthrozoopod @intl_elephants @cultureanimals @EASE_anthrozoo @CivetProject @UniofExeter @miamiuniversity
