Elephant Aid International

Throwback Thursday! Each week we’re rewinding to one of our favorite moments since the elephants arrived at the Refuge—because some memories never get old, no matter how many times we hit replay. This week: Mundi’s first morning at ERNA — May 13, 2023. #Elephant

Bo succumbs to Tarra’s charms and lets her join him for breakfast. #Elephants #Elephant

Mundi’s not shy about inviting herself to Bo's dinner. Bo, however, isn’t exactly thrilled for the company. #Elephant #Elephants

Breakfast done, Mundi takes the lead—and Bo’s happy to follow her into the next adventure. #Elephant #Elephants

Bo prefers the Migratory Bird Pond—well, birdless. Mundi doesn’t mind the birds; she’s happy to find Bo and Tarra. #Elephant #Elephants

Mundi went for a moonlit mud plunge. #Elephant #Elephants

Bo had it up to his ears with the egregious egret, but this bold bird wasn’t backing down. Don’t forget to tune into our EleCam at youtube.com/@ElephantAidIn… for more fun scenes like this one happening at the Refuge. #Elephant #Elephants #Egret

Watching Mundi in the mud never gets old. #Elephant #Elephants

It was Bo’s session at the teaching wall, but Tarra and Mundi weren’t about to miss out on the treats. At ERNA, the teaching wall is all about choice, and sometimes, the choice is “stand nearby and hope for snacks. #Elephant #Elephants
