    Northern Thailand is a mountainous wilderness of unspoilt forest and with its unbeatable scenery it is truly a beautiful and especially mystic place. Here you can find Elephant haven, a place where some of the few Asian elephants that are left roam free after years of hard labor in the cities or woods. The elderly have adopted the young ones and adoptive older brothers take care of the small and the very old and weak. Unique because elephants, like humans, are famous for their very strong and lifelong family bonds. In Return to the Wild we will have a close look at the park and haven, Today, 25 elephants live in Haven’s forest. But more are coming. Antoinette van de Water, a Dutch young woman has started a foundation “Bring the elephant home” which collects money to buy those ones most in need. This time she has bought two elephants to bring to the park.
