  • Thank You!


    We are so thankful for the support we have received from our community. The funding for the fence clearing was raised by the GreaterGood with a generous matching grant from Jeff and Janis Rosenthal. And the Nature Defense Foundation, under the direction of Sarah Shaw, funded the perimeter fence construction. We are on our way, in a big way!

     


    Shristi Singh Shrestha’s comment about why she is excited for the development of ERNA: Elephants deserve a home.

     


    The recent rains caused a bit of erosion at the creek crossing at ERNA, which we needed to repair. We will seed this area and cover with hay. In days the grasses will sprout and stabilise the soil.

    This old house was found on the ERNA property. Would you participate in a volunteer day to salvage the tongue and grove wood siding?

    Elephants are not objects for human amusement. Using elephants as attractions ends when tourists refuse to visit cruel events — such as the “elephant car wash” seen in this article.
