Personality

Boon Mee is a kind and curious elephant. She was the first elephant to move to our new location in Sai Yok, where she loves eating all the wild plants – especially bamboo. She’s often seen carrying food with her, making sure she never runs out of a snack.

History

Boon Mee previously lived at a trekking camp in Pattaya with her mahout, who was also her owner (this is uncommon). He truly cared for her, and when he decided to retire, he wanted to give Boon Mee the best retirement possible.

Distinguishing features

Boon Mee has long, draped ears with some damage on the lower part of her right ear. She also has fluffy hairs on her head and beneath her lower lip, giving her a very distinctive appearance.
