Faa Mai (ฟ้้ าใหม่่ ) Born at ENP: April 17, 2009 Sex: Female
Faa Mai, meaning ‘New Sky’, was born on April 17, 2009, at Elephant Nature Park. She was the first calf born at the park to our resident elephants. Her mother, Mae Bua Tong, was rescued in 2005 with her daughter, Tong Jaan, who was just six months old at the time. Faa Mai will never endure the cruel torture of training or work a day in her life. The kindness she has experienced since birth is evident in her gentle and curious nature. For the rest of her life, Faa Mai will remain in her matriarchal family group with Mae Bua Tong and Tong Jaan. She has acted as a junior nanny to Dok Mai and Dok Rak and is known for her dynamic, playful personality. Faa Mai shares a special bond with our founder Lek, showing great affection towards her. She is open, generous, kind, and willing to take risks to connect with others, fostering unity within ENP’s herds. As a park ambassador, she welcomes newly rescued elephants and spreads joy wherever she goes.
