“Amazing! You prepare their food, then fed them. Rub them with mud and wash them and yourself. They’re so gentle and beautiful. One is expecting a baby in one month so I’m a tad envious of those visiting after the grand event. This is a ‘must do’. These are rescued elephants, not for riding or tricks. Each has its own story.”
