The Elephant Nature Park witnessed a heartwarming incident where a rescued baby elephant called Sa Ngae (Jai Dee) found a loving and caring nanny in the form of Sook Sai. During their first encounter, Sook Sai took a liking to the young one and decided to become his nanny. Sa Ngae reciprocated the affection and formed an immediate bond with his new caretaker. However, winning over the approval of Sa Ngae’s mother, Mho Jae, was not easy as she remained wary initially. To alleviate Mho Jae’s concerns, Sook Sai was placed in an adjacent shelter adjacent to Sa Ngae’s to let the two elephants get acquainted. Sook Sai proved to be an exceptional nanny by keeping a close watch on Sa Ngae at all times, ensuring his safety and well-being. The adorable pair spent a lot of time together, and in due course, Mho Jae became comfortable with having a helper in raising her child.
The technique of gradually introducing newly rescued elephants to their herd has significantly minimized potential conflicts among them. Elephant Nature Park is dedicated to finding suitable friends and companions for these elephants. The story of Sook Sai and Sa Ngae exemplifies the incredible bonds that exist between elephants and highlights the crucial role of caretakers in providing a safe and nurturing environment for them. At Elephant Nature Park, every effort is made to ensure that rescued elephants receive the necessary care and love to thrive. The success of these efforts is demonstrated by stories such as that of Sook Sai and Sa Ngae, where these gentle giants can now enjoy a life filled with peace and happiness.
