It has been a month since Gluay Hom arrived at Elephant Nature Park

His leg is almost back to normal, but the joint is still stiff and he favors that leg. His hind quarters are still weak, and muscle atrophy clear due to lack of exercise for years. That will change with time. We will need take or a walk and bring him to the pool for his leg and body exercise. The swelling is significantly reduced. We’re so pleased with our medical team.

Update from Darrick on Gluay Hom

Gluay Hom is doing very well. TX continues for the swelling in his leg (pain and anti inflam meds). His leg is almost back to normal, but the joint is still stiff, and he favors that leg. I am quite pleased, and very happy with our medical team. Gluay Hom's energy levels are good. He eats well and his weight is up. The river has been high, so he hasn't made it over to our elephant scale for an accurate evaluation.

Welcome Home to our new Elephant Nature Park family member Gluay Hom

This little boy is quite fatigued. Rest and a nutritionally balanced food regimen will improve his energy levels. For now, he seems somewhat baffled by his new chain less condition. He will play with a chain that locks his gate, jangling it repeatedly. He enjoys his mud pit, and indeed, has been sleeping there rather than under the shelter on his sand pile. It is a time for adjustments to his new life status. He is on anti-inflammatory meds and pain modifiers for his injured leg. We will xray it next week. Superficial wounds have been treated. He is a good patient, and still a gentle young boy.
