Lek Chailert pays tribute to the inspiration of Medo
Medo serves as an inspiration, reminding us never to lose hope, regardless of our circumstances.
Medo’s Unstoppable Spirit
Medo, our incredible girl with an indomitable spirit! We don’t really know Medo’s actual birthday but we believe it might be approximately 1976. So when we see playful behaviour of a 45-50 year old elephant, we can only imagine her contentment and happiness.
Elephant of the Week 2 October 2023: Our resilient girl Medo

Flashback Friday 15 September 2023: Medo’s Life Before & After Rescue
Medo once lived with her two best friends, Mae Lanna and SaoYai. But the climb up the mountain eventually became too much for her and she developed friendships with SookJai (who has since passed away) and Gemsai, with whom she enjoys that company. She is a calm, easy-going elephant with an indomitable spirit, enjoying her life in the sanctuary of the park.

Insights into the natural behaviours of rescued elephants that are allowed to behave as elephants is a true joy to watch. This vlogging style production shows rescued elephants Taddao, MeDo and Sai Thong walking through lush vegetation, where we see these mature elephants foraging the hillside for their food.
Rescued Elephant Medo relaxes peacefully in the sanctuary of Elephant Nature Park

Medo
Medo is a medium sized female born around 1976. The majority of her working days were spent in logging camps. She was rescued from a very remote area near the Thai/Burma border, and arrived at Elephant Nature Park in June 2006. She has a Karen language name, a reference to her sad physical condition that has resulted from horrible abuse.
