Elephants

Elephant Jungle Sanctuary Pattaya

This is a fantastic rescue center for retired and mistreated elephants and currently runs in nine locations around Thailand. Along with providing tourists with the opportunity to spend quality time with these beautiful creatures in their natural habitat, the centers aim to raise awareness and educate people about elephant care and the importance of protecting this species, whilst rescuing and caring for as many elephants as possible; with the aim of protecting remaining habitats and preserving the Thai elephant population. Due to the Sanctuary's mission there is absolutely no elephant riding here - a practice that causes long-term damage to the elephant, and often involves cruelty to get the elephant to conform. There is not a bull-hook to be seen at the Sanctuary; these elephants are free and choose to interact with the staff and tourists because they want to as they are shown respect, love and affection here.

Cozy Beach
