Story
Mae Nang is the one of the most troubled elephants to arrive at EVP. Her previous owners abused and worked her tirelessly for many years, logging and transporting goods.
After lengthy negotiations, she finally came to the Elephant Valley Project in May 2011. She shows signs of heavy overwork, is blind in her right eye, and is scared of anything new in her environment. However she has slowly regained her strength and is a much loved member of the four “Heaven Girls”.
From her arrival Ning Wan and Ruby have kindly taken Mae Nang under their wing and are teaching her how to be an elephant again. In turn she has served as a great support for our youngest Pearl all the same. As our oldest elephant she is our resident granny at EVP and spends her days hanging with her four best pals.
Come for a visit and say hello to her yourself!Â
