Jaidee is making the decision which herd will be her new family ?
As with every new rescued elephant arrival at Elephant Nature Park, days, weeks or even months are taken by the new arrival to observe their new home. They visit different herds and later they will make a decision which herd they want to join, if herd members are willing. Jaidee did the same. Since she arrived at our park less than a month ago, she has become so confident to walk and introduce herself to different family groups, especially the group that have young elephants.

Thank you to Mr.Adam Flin who gave her a new life, with his direct support, she will spend the rest of her life with love and care from our herd and her new family.
