通过文献整理与实地走访，对中国动物园圈养亚洲象(Elephas maximus)的福利状况进行评估。文献整理共获得1953-2017年中国47家动物园275头圈养亚洲象的福利信息，2017年实地走访调查了7家动物园22头圈养亚洲象的福利状况。福利状况评估主要以动物园与水族馆协会（AZA）的大象管理与护理标准和中国动物园协会的《动物园设计》为参考标准，并与欧洲与北美圈养亚洲象福利状况进行对比。评估根据动物福利五大自由进行，以体况指数和饲料评估免受饥饿、营养不良的自由，以兽舍设施条件和社群结构评估免于因环境而承受痛苦的自由，以寿命及死亡原因、足部健康问题和生殖健康评估免受痛苦及伤病的自由，以自然行为表达机会和有无呆板行为评估表达天性的自由，以亚洲象的训练方式评估免受恐惧和压力的自由。评估结果还显示圈养亚洲象的足部健康问题和呆板行为的有关联。

The welfare state of Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) in Chinese zoos was assessed by literature reviews and field visits. Literature reviews got information of 275 captive Asian elephants in 47 zoos in China from 1953 to 2017, and field visits in 2017 surveyed 22 Asian elephants in 7 zoos. Assessment of welfare state mainly used AZA Standards for Elephant Management and Care and Zoo Design written by Chinese Association of Zoological Gardens as guides, and results were compared with the captive Asian elephant welfare state in Europe and North America. The assessment followed the Five Freedoms of Animal Welfare, by using body conditions index and feed to assess freedom from thirst and hunger; the enclosure conditions and the colony structures to assess freedom from discomfort; Lifetimes and causes of death, foot problems and reproductive health to assess freedom from pain, injury, and disease; the opportunities to express natural behaviors and whether there is stereotyped behaviors to assess freedom to express most normal behavior; the way of training to assess freedom from fear and distress. In addition, the results of assessment showed the foot problems and stereotyped behaviors of Asian elephants were associated.
