PYI MAI
Born: November 2020
Sex: Female
Pyi Mai (New Year) was rescued along with her mother, Kham Moon, from an elephant show and riding camp. Pyi Mai and her mother were found living in in terrible conditions. Kham Moon was on an extremely short chain in a tiny concrete pen without adequate space to care for her newborn baby or access to sufficient food and water.
The owner of the riding camp eventually agreed for us to rescue Kham Moon & Pyi Mai, on the understanding that we could provide a better life for them at the sanctuary. Since arriving at the park, Dmax has happily taken on the role of Pyi Mai’s nanny. Dmax, Kham Moon, and Pyi Mai are inseparable with mother and nanny sharing the responsibilities of caring for the sweet baby, Pyi Mai.
We are so happy to be able to rescue Pyi Mai at such a young age knowing that she will be able to thrive in her new sanctuary home with her small and loving herd. Baby Wan Mai & Pyi Mai’s families are spending more time with each other every day - always closely supervised by super nanny Sri Nuan. We hope that eventually they will roam the park together as one herd.
