Elephants that Paint/Chang Mai

At Matetamann Raftting and Elephant camp you can ride an elephant, watch an elephant show, watch them paint pictures and go rafting on a bamboo raft. Long bamboo poles make up the raft, kind of touristy but fun. Tel (6653)-297060,29783

Interesting that elephants can actually paint a picture. They are trained to many other things but to me the most amazing thing is that they paint pictures. After they have painted the picture you may purchase the one you want. Very inexpensive and quite the treasure. I will add a picture of them painting as soon as I locate the disc it is on.

You may think that visiting these camps as there are many, is contributing to cruelty toward the elephants, on the contrary, you are contributing to their welfare. Your visiting these camps and paying your admission fee, and fee for other, experiences such as feeding bananas and sugarcane, riding and rafting, actually helps support these magnificent animals. Call and see how you can help support their beauty and wellbeing. The Telephone Number is above.
