Living Green Elephant Sanctuary, founded in 2016 and located in Chiang Mai, Thailand, is an eco-friendly sanctuary dedicated to the well-being of elephants and raising awareness about elephant conservation.

Our priority is to create a responsible and ethical environment where people can enjoy playful interactions without the need of forcing the Elephants. We believe in leaving the elephants free, allowing them to live their lives in a natural and nurturing habitat.

Our journey began with two special elephants named Boon-Me and Thu-Meh, who inspired us to expand our mission and establish a sanctuary that truly makes an impact. In our early experience, we witnessed the heart-wrenching mistreatment of elephants and felt an overwhelming sense of empathy. We made a promise to provide these magnificent creatures with a better life and the care they deserve.

Today, with 20 magnificent elephants across our three camps, we proudly uphold our commitment, inspired by the legacy of these two special elephants named Boon-Me and Thu-Meh. Beyond the elephants themselves, our mission encompasses supporting underprivileged communities in border villages, striving to create a positive impact beyond the sanctuary’s borders.
