#Saengduean #Elephant #Rescue
Yai Saengduean is a 75 year old working elephant just rescued by Save Elephant Foundation. For her entire life, she has served humans in one capacity or another. She has pulled logs for decades. She has walked the streets. She has been the draw to sell Buddha amulets, hair rings, and talismans to the devout. She has worked in the tourist riding camps for many years. She has lived the life of almost all elderly working captive elephants.
It took 15 hours to drive from ChaCheongSoa Province to Elephant Nature Park. On arrival, she began immediately to scratch on the poles of the clinic. It almost seemed like a new and delightful experience. How long since she has been able to do that ? Our vet team scrubbed her body clean of her past. She seems less inclined to scratch at the moment, but she will know, with time, that she has every opportunity to do so whenever she should desire. Scratch posts are a basic right, as are freedom to explore and associate with her own kind. The days ahead are an open door. Saengduean arrived on 13 May 2022. Learn More: saveelephant.org/
