‘Don’t be ignorant, do some research DON’T RIDE ELEPHANTS,’ wrote one.
Meanwhile, another follower echoed this sentiment.
‘Please look up what they do to these elephants to teach them to allow people on their backs. It’s called Elephant Crushing.’

The practice of ‘elephant crushing’ or ‘training crush’ is a process by which baby elephants are restricted in a cage in order to tame it for riding and other uses.
Later, one detractor’s comment disappeared, and they reposted another accusing Hayley of deleting it.
‘Why did you delete my comment? I wasn’t being nasty, but please consider what elephants go through to get that Instagram photo. It’s sickening. They’re stolen from their mothers and they essentially break their spirit,’ they wrote.

It comes as Hayley recently revealed that she thinks God has ‘bigger plans’ for her after quitting the adult entertainment industry and getting sober.
Taking to her Instagram after first hinting that she was shutting down her OnlyFans account in December, the bodybuilder expressed a belief in divine guidance for her life choices.
‘I know that God has bigger plans for me than what I’m doing.’

Hayley, who has spent the past four years working as a porn star and high-class escort, officially quit the industry last month.
Hayley earlier revealed she earned a whopping AUD$90,000 within the first month of joining the subscription website OnlyFans.
‘[I earned] $60,000 USD. It was an absolutely bucketload,’ she previously said, explaining it was approximately AUD$90,000.
‘I want to say that I did heaps of work, but just coming off the back of the show, I don’t know, I did nothing pretty much.’
‘It was pretty basic content, because everyone wanted to see the girl that was on telly nude! It was crazy!’
She added: ‘I didn’t even get nude. I think they were like bikini photos, and it was more the inquisitiveness of the experience that got people buying in.’
