Currently, New Elephant Home is an elephant conservation center with 15 elephants. In the past, my father used to run it as an elephant camp for riding and elephant shows until he passed away. I, as the eldest son, along with my mother from the Long Neck Karen tribe, have been taking care of these elephants and conducting ethical operations.
