A video is going viral on the internet where a 22-year-old social media influencer named Alesya Kafelnikova is seen posing naked on top of an endangered Sumatran elephant. Notably, the model is also the daughter of
former world tennis player Yevgeny Kafelnikov.
Alesya shared a short video of her with the elephant on her Instagram page on February 13, with the caption "Natural vibes".
The Russian social media influencer evoked sharp reactions from netizens on her Instagram page. As one of the comments on her post read, "Poor elephant. Aren’t you ashamed to lie naked on an elephant? This is a living creature. Money overshadows everything".
While another guy wrote, "This is not cool action, leave the elephant and use a chair or something else. This is cruelty,” as well as, “Why be naked? Do you think everyone is interested in seeing you naked? How does this elephant deserve to have treatment?”
According to The Sun, the video sparked outrageous comments from animal groups including Save the Asian Elephants, who condemned her actions and described the post as ‘something else tragic’.
