Our Mission 💚
Aonang Elephant Sanctuary rescues elephants of all ages and provides the best possible living conditions. These elephants cannot return to the jungle—they weren't born there and lack survival skills. Instead of working in the timber industry, they receive loving care, a safe home, and genuine interaction with people who truly appreciate them.
