Elephant camp, Myanmar
We took a long ride through a teak forest area to arrive at one part of the elephant camp. One section is for the "teak workers", another for "retirees" and the third ( that we visited ) is the maternity area. There were 6 babies and youngsters allowed free rein, but never out of sight of their mothers. This is a government sponsored camp...but as the need for elephants as teak workers dies , what happens then????
