At the turn of the last century there were over one hundred thousand elephants in Thailand , today there are less than five thousand. In view of this frightening statistic, Maesa Elephant Camp has, for many years, dedicated our knowledge and expertise to create a breeding programme, of which the success is proudly seen in our elephant nursery. Only five minutes walk from the elephant showground, baby elephants live with their mothers and are brought up with exceptional professional care where they spend happy childhoods shyly welcoming visitors.

Baby elephants will live together with their parent elephants until they are two and a half to three years old. During this time they will have their intelligence and skills fully developed by the professional and caring mahouts and staff.

The Elephant Nursery is open daily from 7 a.m. – 2.30 p.m
