Asian elephants have become gradually more vulnerable to violence and abuse as their popularity has increased among tourists. The Elephant Nature Park is a rehabilitation center for these elephants that sits among the lush mountains of Chiang Mai, Thailand. This safe haven allows for the elephants to roam on vast acres of untouched land and reconnect with other elephants, while also serving to educate visitors in an effort to prevent such atrocities from continuing in the future.
