Here we are at the Elephant Safari Park, home to 19 Sumatran elephants. This park is the result of an idea hatched by the man behind the Bali Adventure Tours company. His plan was to rescue Sumatran elephants that had been trained to work in the logging industry but were then abandoned when the idustry declined. (There are no wild elephants in Bali). The elephants and their pawhan's (mahout's) were brought to Bali and now look healthy and well cared for.
