A beautiful encounter on their regular walk.

Our elephants came across a rhino two incredible giants sharing the same wild home, quietly observing one another before continuing on their way.

Moments like these remind us why protecting their natural habitat matters.

WORLD ELEPHANT DAY | 12 AUGUST

For us, every day is an elephant day.

Today, however, is a special reminder to pause and celebrate these incredible beings, to remember the elephants around the world who still need our protection, and to renew our promise to work towards a better future for them.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who has been part of our journey our supporters, sponsors , volunteers, friends, and our local community. Your trust, kindness, and belief in our work mean more than words can express.

Today, we celebrated with the elephants in the simplest way.

We prepared their favourite fruits and vegetables, spent time close to them, watched them enjoy their treats, and most importantly, gave them the freedom and space to choose how they wanted to spend their day.

Because being close to an elephant should never mean taking away their space. Sometimes, loving them means simply being there while allowing them to be themselves.

Today, we also remembered all elephants those living freely in the wild, those in captivity, those who are still working, and those waiting for a better life.

And we renew our promise: we will continue doing whatever we can to help create a kinder and better future for elephants.

Thank you to everyone who stands with us.

And if you have ideas about how we can help other elephants or make a difference in their lives, we would genuinely love to hear from you. Sometimes, one idea can become the beginning of something meaningful.

Happy World Elephant Day.
From all of us at Elephant Care Nepal.

Did you know elephants don’t throw dust on themselves just for fun?

That dusty “bath” is actually one of nature’s smartest skincare routines.

•Dust acts like a natural sunscreen, helping protect their sensitive skin from the hot sun.
•It also helps keep biting insects and parasites away.
• After bathing, a layer of dust locks in moisture and prevents their skin from drying out.
• And yes—it even helps cool them down!

The next time you see an elephant covering itself in dirt, remember: it’s not getting dirty… it’s taking care of its skin in the most natural way possible.

Baby elephant decided the grass pile was the perfect snack spot… with a little scratch on the cement before digging in.
Sometimes, a little scratch and some fresh grass are all you need to be happy.

Just two elephants living their best life

25/07/2026

After several days of choosing not to enter the river because of the strong monsoon currents, today the elephants decided it was time for a bath.

The recent floods have made the river look muddy, but that’s completely normal during Nepal’s monsoon season. While the water may not look crystal clear, the elephants know when they feel comfortable entering the river and we always let them decide.

At Elephant Care Nepal, we never force an elephant to bathe. Their comfort, safety, and choice always come first.

Watching them finally splash, swim, and enjoy the river today was a beautiful reminder that respecting an elephant’s decisions is an essential part of ethical elephant care. ❤️

Shuvakali knows exactly how to solve an itch!

Elephants often rub against trees, rocks, or sturdy posts to scratch places they can’t reach with their trunks. This natural behavior helps remove loose skin, parasites, and relieves itchy spots especially during the monsoon when insects are more active.

Watching Shuvakali happily scratch her bottom is a reminder that even simple natural behaviors are an important part of elephant welfare. Every elephant deserves the freedom to express these behaviors without chains or restrictions.

What’s your favorite part of Shuvakali’s personality?
