Description

The Elephant Retirement Park Phuket has been established to create a haven for retired elephants, and a sustainable habitat for the elephants to live in a safe and natural environment, free from profiteering and neglect. The Elephant Retirement Park Phuket is proud of its strict policy in the treatment of its elephants. There is absolutely no riding, chaining or beating of any kind. The sole focus is to promote the well-being of retired elephants.
