NamThip and Mintra: A Developing Bond - ElephantNews

#elephantsanctuary #elephantrescued #namthip We introduced Mintra to NamThip, and it was a truly tender moment. Mintra approached NamThip with such gentleness, using her trunk to delicately touch NamThip’s short tail, while NamThip reciprocated the curiosity, showing interest in Mintra’s beautiful tail.

She let out soft moans and seemed to chatter incessantly, at times displaying signs of nervousness and uncertainty, likely stemming from never having been with her own mother or other elephants since infancy. NamThip struggled to articulate her overwhelming emotions, but she found solace in conversing with Mintra for a long time.
