Meet our Elephants
Tong Bai
-
Tong Bai came to happy elephant home in 2015 and is now 46 years old.
-
In Thai her name means ‘golden leaf’.
-
She started her working life as a logging elephant but there was an accident that injured her knees and hip so was taken to be a riding elephant instead.
-
She still has the imprint of the basket on her back which makes her easy to spot in the herd.
-
Due to her untreated injuries she is unable to bend her back left leg and so has to swing her leg when she walks.
-
She is a very gentle, slow old elephant.
-
Her mahout is Anui.
Molo
-
Molo was the first elephant to arrive at Happy Elephant Home in 2014.
-
She is the oldest, at 50 years old and the smallest elephant in the herd.
-
She was rescued from the logging industry.
-
She is blind in her right eye and because of this she moves very slowly.
-
Molo's favourite thing is to go swimming in the river.
-
Her mahout is Nini.
Mojiko
-
Mojiko is our newest arrival at Happy Elephant Home coming in January 2023.
-
Mojiko is around 50 years old.
-
She has very quickly become best friends with Molo and they go everywhere together.
-
Mojiko has previously been used in a riding camp which closed due to covid.
-
She then spent 2 years not working and living at her owners home before being able to join us at Happy.
-
Her mahout is Artur.
Bua Bann
-
Bua Bann arrived at Happy Elephant Home in 2022.
-
During the pandemic Bua Bann was kept in the local village chained in one spot.
-
Bua Bann was very skinny and malnourished during this time.
-
We are so happy she is thriving and gaining weight since joining us at Happy Elephant Home.
-
Her mahout is Nunu.
Our dogs
Happy Elephant Home is not just a safe place for Elephants but there are also dogs who are cared for and looked after at the park.
