Where can I go to hang with some elephants?

I’m an animal lover, and I like to try to befriend animals when I meet them. Lately I’ve been really curious about elephants because they are so smart. I’m curious what their personalities are like and what it would be like to try to interact with one.

Does anyone know of sanctuaries around the world that will let you interact meaningfully with the elephants? I don’t mean the scripted stuff where the elephant is just going through the motions (I once paid to swim with dolphins at a sanctuary and while it was really cool, all interactions with the dolphins were just trained tricks and felt empty).

Is there a sanctuary that will let you care for the elephants and straight up hang out with them for a few hours (or days), basically letting you get to know them?

Hey guys! Here's an elephant painting I've done recently. They've been coming up a lot in some of my paintings. Would love feedback if you have it. Hope you enjoy!

My Favorite Elephant HERD!

I thought you all might enjoy this Elephant Orphange and rescue in SA. This video opens with Khanyisa, an albino youngster who was entangled in a snare wrapped around her head and mouth. Almost 5 years later, she's healed well and is an absolute sweetheart. <3 Enjoy, and Happy Holidays to all!
