Trees for Elephants<\/h2>

The Asian elephant, a keystone species, is threatened with extinction as its remaining habitat, food supply and migration routes have been destroyed through deforestation.. Over the last three generations, a population decline of at least 50% has been estimated, with a current total population of about 30,000-50,000 individuals. In Thailand, elephants live in small, isolated populations. A minimum viable population is not reached in most elephant ranges in Thailand; unless habitat connectivity is improved.<\/p>

Since 2008, Bring The Elephant Home has planted over 700,000 trees for elephants at different locations in Asia in collaboration with various organisations and the help of thousands of volunteers! We plant native framework species (FORRU \u2013 Chiang Mai University) to restore, connect, and create habitats where elephants are safe and can flourish as a keystone species. To continue this important project, we need your help. Please help us to plant more trees for elephants!<\/p>

Our Trees for Elephants project has covered several locations that are important for the conservation of wild elephants: Salakpra Wildlife Sanctuary, Khao Yai National Park, Khao Ang Rue Nai Wildlife Sanctuary, Kui Buri National Park and along the Kinabatangan River in Borneo. We are always cooperating closely with local organizations and communities. Our community partners identify degraded areas, and maintain the trees after they\u2019re planted to ensure successful reforestation.<\/p>
