| Saving elephants KILLER ELEPHANT SAVED FROM DEATH
Boon Seuhm aged 68 came to the Kraal on the 21st August 2007, just days after she killed a man. Boon Seuhm remembered the man in question who had taunted her 10 years ago with firecrackers and withholding food.
The same man came back and taunted her again and she killed him.
She was to be shot as the owner could no longer keep her. Previously he had decided that he did not want to sell her to a nearby rubber plantation to work, due to her age.
The owner of the elephant heard about our program to retire old elephants and how the Kraal had retrained killer elephants in the past and given them a new life. This was a happy alternative for him, Boon Seuhm and us here at the Kraal. Boon Seuhm can now be assured of a happy caring retirement

Set alight in a malicious act of cruelty this elephant was in a bad way when it arrived at the Elephant Kraal. Fortunately the elephant made a full recovery.
This wild elephant was found caught in poachers snare. Due to the horrific extent of its injuries it was estimated it had been suffering with this snare for about one month. It was caught up and taken to the Kraal where intensive care was provided for six months. Tragically due to the horrendous extent of its injury and the associated problems of infection and the damage that had created the elephant did not survive.
