Introduction
With more than 70% of the elephant population, in Thailand alone, being found outside of protected areas our goal is to provide safe and monitored habitats for these elephants to thrive. Our project works across Asia and actively rescues Elephants and rehabilitates them in a protected forest, whilst providing protection and monitoring to ensure they remain safe. We are working with conservationists and local community members to research alternative strategies for elephant conservation.
Report
We cannot just put elephants into protected areas, therefore need new strategies and research to help these elephants remain safe and continue to populate. It costs our project in Sri Lanka $300 per month for one researcher who’s goal it is to keep elephants in wild.
