Land has been purchased in Northern Thailand next to the new Boon Lott's Elephant Sanctuary. A lake is being created there so the resident elephants will have a swimming and bathing place. Water adds a much needed dimension to an elephants life both for pleasure and cleanliness.

The Elephants Umbrella Fund has rescued nine elephants they have been put into caring situations with good food, clean water for drinking and bathing and immediate veterinary care. Each elephant has also a Mahout to care specifically for it, in saving the elephant you are also providing a living for the Mahout and their family, save an elephants save a family.

With your generous donations the EUF is now supporting a mobile veterinary unit in Laos on an annual basis. This unit provides care for both domestic and wild elephants in need of veterinary care and medicine. This is a valuable service for the Mahouts and villagers to aid in keeping their animals healthy.

Two microchip readers have been purchased to aid veterinarians in keeping track of an elephants history and medical needs.

Four radio collars were purchased for orphaned elephant calves in Sri Lanka to help monitor their return to the wild.

Six thousand dollars were given to help build retaining walls in an elephant sanctuary subject to monsoon rains.

EUF will continue to support on an annual basis, the Mobile Vet Unit in Laos as well as providing radio collars for the calves being released in Sri Lanka. We also hope to gather funding to aid in purchasing more land for several sanctuaries in Thailand.
