The Elephants at Knysna Elephant Park are all
orphans rescued from culling operations in the Kruger
National Park, except for Thandi who was
born here. The Knysna Elephant Park provides these elephants with the best
board and lodging. Their diet is scientifically supervised by veterinarians.
They have free range of the 60 hectare camp on which there is plenty to eat,
some big trees to rub up against and two large dams for bathing and drinking.
With the help of the elephants themselves and
the wonderful guides, I learned all about the sad and mystical story of the
Knysna Elephants. It was simply incredible
to be in the presence of such gentle giants!!
