Being emotional is not a weakness. Oftentimes, it is what makes friendships more meaningful and beautiful.
Smart Creatures
Elephants are super intelligent and affectionate creatures. Their hearts are metaphorically as big as their size.
Allie And The Baby Elephant
Allie has known the little elephant from Chai Lai Orchid since the day the calf was born.
A Special Bond
The two of them have developed a special bond, and it shows in the way they spend time together.
The Chai Lai Orchid
The Chai Lai Orchid is an ecolodge in Northern Thailand that shares land with an elephant camp where 12 elephants reside.
Creating A Sanctuary
These 12 elephants had been used for mass tours for two years until the Chai Lai Orchid rescued the herd and created a sanctuary for them in Northern Thailand.
Allie’s Friend Loves Cuddles
The baby elephant loves cuddling with Allie. He probably thinks he’s a little baby because of the way Allie cares for him.
The Difficult Part
A baby elephant can weigh around 200 pounds, which is already hard for an adult human male to carry, so imagine how vigorous Allie’s playtime with the baby elephant must be.
But It’s Worth It
Despite how exhausting their bonding moments can be, Allie is more than happy to spend time with the baby elephant who selflessly gives back all the love she’s been giving him.
