Closely Bonded Rescued Elephants Are Warmly Welcomed Into a New Herd
Nam Phueng and Thung Thong, a pair of bonded elephants at Elephant Nature Park in Chiang Mai, Thailand, were introduced to a new herd and warmly welcomed into the fold by the other elephants.
To help them settle into their new home, we gradually introduced them to the Thai Koon herd. The Thai Koon family warmly welcomed both elephants, creating a calm and trusting environment where new friendships could bloom.
These two elephants had a rough go of it and had difficulty being separated, with Thung Thong calling out to Nam Phueng as her friend was taken away for rescue. Initially, the pair stayed very close together, keeping their distance from the other elephants, so it was heartening to see their joy as they joined a new herd.
Nam Phueng and Thung Thong were rescued from Surin Province, Thailand. When they arrived at Elephant Nature Park, their deep and unbreakable bond became even more evident, staying close to each other through every step of their new journey at Elephant Nature Park.
