Kuala Gandah
Elephant Sanctuary is a known centre for rescuing & protecting Malaysia's elephants.The journey from Kuala Lumpur takes
approximately 1 hour 45 minutes. The conservation was established in 1989
by the Department of Wildlife and National Parks. The centre is a base for the
Elephant Relocation Team, which began the elephant trans location programme in
1974.
The only one of its kind in Malaysia, the team is dedicated to locating, subduing and then Trans locating problem elephants from areas where their habitats are constantly being encroached by plantations and to other suitable habitats throughout the Peninsular such as Taman Negara.
Over the past 25 years the centre has helped prevent the further declined of the elephant population by relocating more than 300 wild elephants. Tour includes elephant ride, elephant feeding and for those who are brave, we suggest you bring a change of clothes and towel if you wish to participate in water activities such as swimming and bathing the elephants in the river.
