Elephant Nature Foundation is a non-profit organization which advocates and acts on behalf of the rights of Asian elephants in Thailand.Our mission is to increase awareness about the plight of the endangered Asian elephant, educate locals on the humane treatment of their elephants, and provide sanctuary for rescued elephants at our nature park.
Elephant Nature Park, our showpiece project, provides a safe home to rescued elephants who were previously abused and neglected. Perfect for day trips, overnight visits, and long-term volunteer opportunities, Elephant Nature Park offers a unique experience for visitors of all ages.

Our newest endeavor, the Surin Project, is an exciting continuation of our work at Elephant Nature Park. Located in the Surin province, the project works with mahouts who have previously used their elephants for street begging and circus shows. The Surin Project provides a more natural, less stressful, and more sustainable alternative for these elephants, and volunteers are needed to help build this new sanctuary.
Located on a remote mountaintop, Elephant Haven is a jungle retreat regularly visited by our elephants. Far from human encroachment, a visit to the Haven allows our elephants to relax in their natural environment.
Jumbo Express provides emergency medical care to elephants who would otherwise receive none. It also works to build ties with local populations and helps to improve human-elephant relationships.
The Surin Project is a new park in the Surin province, east of Bangkok. Here we will continue our efforts to save the Asian elephant from extinction and give them a life worth living for generations to come.
