THE CHANG CHIANG MAI
Now, the Thai Elephant Care Center has been renamed, The Chang Chiangmai. Under the new ownership of Mrs.Anchalee Bunarat, the eldest daughter of Mr.Choochart, many changes have been made. It is part of an ongoing development, which includes Maesa Elephant Camp. The elephants now enjoy complete freedom of movement, no longer chained, they can roam wherever they choose in the sanctuary. The mahouts do not ride the elephants, nor do they use the hook for control. New dust and mud bath areas have been created, and the elephants can spend time cooling off in the stream.
