Napier Grass is rich in protein & carbohydrates and can be harvested within 4 months, making it a great food source for our elephants. As part of our food source self-sufficiency initiative we plan to grow a large amount of this fast-growing plant soon. #phuketelephantsanctuary

Since our opening in 2016, our vision has always been to create a space that resembles the elephants’ natural habitat and allows them to express their beautiful, natural behaviour. This picture perfectly portrays that vision. #LetElephantsBeElephants #PhuketElephantSanctuary

On 21 September we joined hands with United World College Thailand to plant 300 banana trees at Phuket Elephant Sanctuary – bringing us a big step closer to achieving our target of 1,000 trees in 2020! #uwcthailand #phuketelephantsanctuary #sustainablefuture #thankyou

This month marks Jan Jao’s 3rd anniversary. Over the past years we have witnessed the incredible transformation from an animal that had been completely drained of her spirit into the lively elephant she is today. #thankyou #phuketelephantsanctuary #phuket #thailand

This year’s Word Environment Day theme is #biodiversity. Let this impression of elephants grazing peacefully while an egret observes them from a tree, crickets chirp in the distance, and butterflies flutter by peacefully remind us all of the beauty & importance of #biodiversity.
