Here’s a glimpse of that joy — refreshing moments of our elephants that we’d love to share with you during this festive season. Happy Songkran Day!

Jenny enjoys a peaceful nap

Though some books claim that elephants only sleep standing up, the truth is they do lie down to sleep when they feel safe. Elephants forced to stand while sleeping often face harsh conditions - short chains that restrict movement, hard concrete floors that cause pressure sores, or dirty, wet surfaces soaked with urine and feces.

Elephants long to be loved

Faa Mai and Thong Ae, our two playful teenage elephants, are no exception. They long to be loved, to feel connected, and to be noticed by the people they hold dear. At times, they behave like little children—seeking attention through playful actions and gentle mischief. But every bit of their behavior comes from a place of innocence and pure-hearted emotion.

Sri Nuan is still young at heart

Sri Nuan is known for her reserved yet kind-hearted nature. 💕🐘 She doesn’t often show her emotions, but she has taken on the role of a nanny to many baby elephants here. Rescued from the logging industry, Sri Nuan is blind in one eye, which may explain why she lacks confidence in expressing herself. However, when it comes to taking care of the little ones, her devotion is unwavering.

FaaMai Relaxing

Just as we enjoy lounging on a comfy couch, elephants love lying on soft sand. After reaching the top of the sandy hill, FaaMai flopped down to relax, surrounded by her family, who were all very chatty on this day.

Thong Ae has a good rub

Thong Ae, the energetic little one, feels particularly playful after her bath. She rubs her skin, kicks a rubber ring around, and then heads over to take a mud bath with Grandma Sri Nuan.

Another lovely moment with Medo

Despite Medo’s physical limitations, her spirit is stronger than ever. Today, we’re happy to share another lovely moment with Medo.💕 With her powerful, articulate trunk, she reaches to grab leaves from the highest branches. Stretching her body and extending her trunk with all her might, she carefully selects the leaves she wants.
