I’m sitting here a world away and I’m in tears ,hearing the other elephants trumpet and run to her is so so beautiful. Thank you to everyone looking after her on such a long trip ,she’s home and free and can now rest and play . God bless xox
Sadly, some of the elephants used in the logging industry are drugged so they will work longer hours. As humans, we domesticated certain species for our own benefit. These animals did not ask to be domesticated. We owe them the best treatment and respect. Not exploitation, neglect and abuse. God bless those who rescue and care for them. Keep up the good work.
It's about lack of profit w situations like this but thankful they don't unalive wild animals, they can then live carefree w their own. It's domesticated animals who lose their owners after being w them their whole lives that's really heartbreaking. The domesticated animal has been abandoned. Their owner's reasons don't matter to the animal. It's esp sad when they're seniors
Your comment reminded me of the RUclips channel Takis Shelter, in Greece. He rescues animals, mostly dogs, but he also rescues cats, goats, birds, etc. It's amazing to see the positive transformations the animals he saves make once they enter his shelter, and receive love, care, food, shelter, safety, and security with Takis, his volunteers, and all the other animal friends they make while there. The sad part is, though, is that he has SO MANY dogs, and not enough adopters. I think this channel and Takis Shelter are my two favorite channels on RUclips, for the wonderful and selfless work they all do to rescue, protect, and care for all these magnificent animals. ❤
Bless the owner for knowing he could no longer take care of her and turn her over to someone who could. She’s beautiful and deserves this retirement! Thank you for the rescue! ♥️🐘♥️
How man uses these majestic creatures until they have nothing of worth left to give. A life of servitude, pain and suffering. Hearing the herd greet her was so moving, the chirps and trumpets...crying in joy for her. ❤
I donate what I can to you all. I was asked once (this was a while ago..) why? Why do I give money to a place that's halfway around the world to help elephants, which I will likely never see outside a zoo - since I will NOT go to any circus that uses animals - THIS. This is why. 💚🐘💚
How nice that this man rescued her, but also admits that he struggles taking care of her. If more people were this honest a lot of animal suffering could be prevented. Many people are not able to take care of an animal, financially or otherwise, but are too proud to admit it.
Knowing a rescued elephant's back story prior to the rescue is truly painful and heartbreaking, but knowing that they are now at the beginning of a new and far happier life is so relieving. So happy that she is truly home now, with a family who awaits her coming and kind-hearted humans who never want to hurt her. God Bless You, Dok Koon. Thank you, Lek and ENP! May God Bless all your endeavors and mission.❤🐘❤
🎉🎉🎉 so nice to have an owner hand an elephant over. Ideally, it will happen sooner for them. Thank you rockstars for your honorable work. She is magnificent and deserves the freedom❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Dok Koon, enjoy your new life at ENP. You were super lucky to be offered a second chance at life. ENP is the best place fou you to spend the rest of your life. Lek and her wonderful staff will take care of your needs in a very caring and compassionate way. Have fun and make a lot of friends!!!!🥰🐘🍀🌟♥️🙏🏻🏡
❤ I just love how the other elephants rush to welcome her, telling she's free, safe and loved here, and she can start to heal. Another cracking good video thanks 🖤😎👍
Ty for continuing this beautiful story of hope, resilience, love, and healing! I am so happy to witness the beginning of her healing in life! She so deserves the best life ever and I am sure you are providing it! Ty for the wonderful life purpose you all have. I am in awe of all the elephants and all the carers!
And another beautiful being finds safe haven and love at ENP, with a chorus of joyous new friends to welcome here home. Thank you thank you thank you - I weep with every being who experiences your help and love.
The joy at watching this beautiful elephant get to do those natural behaviors, and soak in that water has my heart singing! Finally .... Finally, free to just be an elephant! God bless you all, and bless the herd! They welcomed her with open trunks! 😊😊
Magnificently BEAUTIFUL. Tears of joy came to my eyes.God bless these gorgeous creatures 🐘 & their SO GOOD wonderful carers forever. LOVE LOVEEEEE ❤️❤️❤️!!!
Elephant should never be used to ride on or to be used for work especially heavy logs I'm so grateful but she doesn't have to do that stuff anymore and that she's reunited with her family that she's free God did not make elephants for these kind of things❤ thank you for your kindness and your compassion
The kindness and intelligence one sees in Dok Koon's eyes, brings tears to mine. Thank you for answering the calls for help that these elephant's owners are making. One can only hope elephant ownership will soon be a thing of the past.
I loved to see how she is welcomed by her new family! And to see how her food was gathered during the journey. A stressful event, but she surely knew that the people were doing something to help her. May she live a long and happy life in this elephant paradise! 👏🙏❤️🩹🪷
It is just awesome to see humans come together to rescue this magnificent lady, especially after humans abused her! Thank you to all of those good people involved in finally getting her to a safe haven! 🐘💕
Good morning Welcome to freedom friends coming to say hello beautiful sight tears watching this rescue her life before heartbreaking now life of love care an friends begins
I don't understand how any human could ride an elephant at all, let alone one with an obvious injury. Thank you to ENP for giving her the rest of her life, in love and freedom ❤️
I had a colleague who was going on holiday to that neck of the woods and I asked her not to ride elephants when she was in Thailand - she rudely told me to mind my own business. That is a sad testament to the "entitled" tourist types that go to these places and I am sure I have seen videos from ENP where tourists torment the Ellie's as they ride down the river. Selfish gits the lot of them! 😡💔🏴
Acts of Humanity like this helps to restore your faith in Mankind. Respect to all those involved and those that reached out for help. GrandMama is Home, she will now heal, make new friends and live out the rest of her years in a caring loving environment. Onwards and Upwards Dok Koon now is your time.
I always love the: ''she was EMPLOYED''........... what a vile laugh and lie. No, this wild, sentient being was taken from her family, natural environment and Peace to be t*rtured, ab*sed, and to suffer indignities beyond description. That's only some of the truths about ensl*vement and captivity. Thank you for saving yet another beautiful soul and giving her Peace.
Couldn't stop myself from watching this repeatedly. The way you care and keep the elephant cool with water springlers and feeding them fresh leaves and fruits is amazing We have seen elephants getting transported in normal goods lorries in hot sun without any food or water , in India . Many wont survive the travel, there was a recent incident where the elephant died before getting down from the lorry at its destination. Authorities please learn from these videos...
Beautiful Dok Koon! I'm so very sorry for all you had to suffer through but now you won't have to suffer any more. I wish we could get these ignorant tourists to STOP riding these poor elephants!!! Stop supporting this cruelty!!!!!!!!!!!!
Poor little one, you've come to the right place! 🙏🐘 Be happy, free, play with your friends who have been "waiting" for you! Thanks for ESO and for all ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Appreciate the support and kindness of helping the elephants in this situation and I hope many of them can also be rescued from the worst situation , hope they can be saved and get a better life soon 💖🌺🍄☘️🌷🌻🌼🍀🌸🪻💖
Seeing animals that have been mistreated finally being given the respect they deserve is overwhelming.
Yes!
I’m sitting here a world away and I’m in tears ,hearing the other elephants trumpet and run to her is so so beautiful. Thank you to everyone looking after her on such a long trip ,she’s home and free and can now rest and play . God bless xox
I wonder what they’re saying. Clearly communicating.
Amen !
Absolutely 💯, such beautiful amazing animals 😊
Me too💙
If you're crying you need medical help
Thank you for saving them and loving them. They all deserve respect, friendship and freedom.

Nothing beats seeing the herd running to greet a newcomer.
Agree!
I know! I started tearing up. It's like they are saying..."Welcome! You're going to love it here!"
Seeing humans make the effort to care for this Elephant and bring her to a family of Elephants is what nothing beats.
I agree, how sweet the other elephants were! Teared me up a bit.
Very true!!
Grandma elephant has had a hard life. Here's to hoping her final years are spent in comfort, surrounded by new friends who love her.
You have to appreciate a person who says, 'I can no longer care for this animal' and gives it up to those who can. That takes a lot. 🙏
especially when they rockin so much bling
@@faxingitin she couldnt make him money anymore
@@ambientsounds5832that is the truly sad part she was worked until she couldn't work anymore. At least she can finally rest.
It's about lack of profit w situations like this but thankful they don't unalive wild animals, they can then live carefree w their own.

Yes, and he was so kind to rescue her when it was a financial burden to do so.
Thank you for ALL you do for these Elephants!! ❤️🐘❤🐘❤️🐘❤️🐘
❤❤❤
its like the welcome committee is saying "welcome to the happy place!"
Your comment reminded me of the RUclips channel Takis Shelter, in Greece.

Free at last. Thanks to all of you for helping that magnificent pachyderm.
She'll heal soon.
Even the babies are happy to see her!. Welcome home Dok Koon. From now on all you will know is love.
Bless the owner for knowing he could no longer take care of her and turn her over to someone who could. She’s beautiful and deserves this retirement! Thank you for the rescue! ♥️🐘♥️
Precious Dok Koon, there’s no better welcoming committee than the one provided by other sweet ellies. 💖🐘
Makes my heart so happy to see Chana and her family come to greet Auntie Dokkoon. Such a beautiful sight to see!
How man uses these majestic creatures until they have nothing of worth left to give. A life of servitude, pain and suffering. Hearing the herd greet her was so moving, the chirps and trumpets...crying in joy for her. ❤
I'm so happy she has finally come home where she is safe and taken care of. Thank you Lek and to all the rescuers.
Thank you to everyone for saving Dok Koon and taking good care of her for the rest of her life.🙏🙏

Circus is a horrible thing
Amen
Well said 👍 and I wholeheartedly agree with every sentiment. Love from Scotland ❤️🏴

Safe and sound now. Thank you for sharing this wonderful moment with us.💝💝💝

These people rescuing the elephants-such arduous work I admire and respect them. So wonderful to witness.
❤💗💗💗
I'm so grateful this rescue foundation can help. It breaks my heart when any animal has to suffer. Thank you to all the volunteers

Our hearts weep and cheer at every new rescue like Dok Koon's coming home at ENP. Bless you all, thank you!
This is my community ❤ animal lovers ❤ thank you for this gentle soul
If only all humans were as caring and loving as Lek Chailert, what a wonderful world it would be.
It is so interesting to see how the elephants communicate with each other. Such a sad thing that they are treated so badly by some people.
Finally doing what elephants are supposed to do. And that welcome... priceless

She looks bewildered. A few days to adjust to her new safe environment then we’ll see her shine.
It's heartwarming to see the herd greeting a newcomer. They are always so excited to make new friends 🧡
Simply beautiful. Thank you for the important work you do🤗🤗🤗
Thank you all. Many blessings to each and every one who helped on this journey.
