Elephants feeling the Earthquake

Since the earthquake on the 28th, we have been closely observing the behavior of each group of elephants at Elephant Nature Park (ENP) to understand how they react to the aftershocks that followed the major earthquake in Chiang Mai Province. More than two hundred aftershocks have occurred since the initial quake. While humans may occasionally feel tremors of magnitude 1-4—sometimes just as a brief feeling of dizziness—elephants perceive far more.
