Video Description:

Frequent thundershowers provide a natural spa day for the elephants at Elephant Nature Park. Along the banks of the Mae Taeng River, Chompu and Muay Lek enjoy therapeutic mud baths, where the rain-soaked earth transforms into a spreadable mineral-rich paste when rubbed just right. Kabu eagerly awaits her family to join her in the cooling waters.

Mud baths allow the elephants to engage in this natural behavior, which protects their skin by replenishing moisture and helps regulate their temperature. This practice is not only therapeutic but also serves as a lively social outing.
