We head north of Thailand to Chiang Mai where we become engrossed in the determination and tenacity of one woman by the name of Lek.

She has worked tirelessly to help old and maimed elephants have a place where there can be safe from the tourist trade and poachers alike. 

The Elephant Nature Park is helped run by volunteers from all walks of life, who wish makes dreams become a reality.

Stroking,feeding or simply observing these beautiful beasts can be done at any time and from any distance. It becomes second nature, as much as having a household pet.
