I've been to Deer Land and Elephant Sanctuary for a month and now only have time to filter the pictures -__-"
warning: there are tons of photo here...
Discover the nature and wild lives at your nearest area :)
To get there is not hard though [well at least we were not lost]. It is 2 hours away from Kuala Lumpur. Take the Lanchang toll exit, and look for the signs to the place.

Elephant Sanctuary
Welcome welcome
I come in peace
but she comes as a miss universe haha
Get the sticker as a Visitor
The color of the stickers represent differently.
The light blue and yellow one is for the first 150 visitors [you may book in advance] gotto join the three activities with the elephants.
- Feeding
- Riding
- Bathing
These two colors also slightly different activity but can't really remember :D
And the red color is for normal visitor, only view no touching hahaha
Big skull
Let's take a look outside
They place the elephants separately, those are still young and wild at one place and those already being trained at another.
Young and wild [probably rescue from the wood]
Electric sign
Elephants
Live petting
Hmmm I'm not a super pet lover, I'm also not a pet pro. But been at the elephant sanctuary for only few hours I didn't feel like they treat all the elephants right. Did you notice the activities that I mentioned earlier? Yeah, imagine there are hundreds of visitors and only one or two of the trained elephants are allowed to be in the activities. Especially the bathing, ONE elephant [the oldest one] has to bring 4 visitors from the yard to the middle of the pond and dump them in, and repeat the loop till finish all the visitor that wanted to bath with elephants [well at least the so-called first 150 visitors]. And this will continue everyday?? Do you think this is the way it work?I felt like I was at the circus! Somebody has to do something.I did my part by letting you know that this is shouldn't be the way it works.
