sabaijai Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 City elephants get park in Surin Writer: APINYA WIPATAYOTIN Published: 11/09/2009 at 12:00 AM Surin is to be home to a new elephant park to shelter jumbos rescued from city streets. A number of elephants have died or been seriously injured in accidents in Bangkok and other cities after being hit by cars, falling into potholes or suffering an electrical shock. In the latest bid to solve the seemingly insurmountable problem, the Natural Resources and Environment Ministry will set up an elephant shelter on 6,000 rai owned by the Royal Forest Department and the Forestry Industry Organisation, permanent secretary Saksit Tridech said yesterday. cont'd here http://www.bangkokpost.com/news/local/2363...t-park-in-surin -- Bangkok Post 2009-09-11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
