This Asian elephant is just one of the fifty at the Elephant Conservation Center. They also house six of the king’s 10 white elephants at the Royal Stable. This government-owned facility provides a host of management, medical, research, and training services. Their mission also includes helping to conserve the 2,000 to 3,000 elephants still living free in Thailand’s forests. This is about 10% of the world’s wild population of this endangered species.
