Oh what it must be like to be so very loved by an elephant. Faa Mai is at her happiest having Lek all to herself, tucked safely between her front legs. So sweet how Faa Mai wraps her trunk around Lek’s hand as they walk. Bliss to watch!

The way she takes Lek by the hand and guides her to where she wants her to go astonishes me. What a blessing and grand privilege also!

Dizzie Chef You’re exactly right; Faa Mai is very possessive of Lek. She only lets Thong Ae spend time with her, but as you can see at 5:32, Faa Mai took her back after a few minutes, lol. Lek has also said that Faa Mai tucks her under her like she’d do if she had a baby. Faa Mai was the first elephant born at ENP and Lek spent a lot of time with her, so I think Faa Mai also sees her as a parent/nanny figure.

The fact that they could so easily squish her with one of those chunky legs,or squeeze too long with their trunk, but they don’t, has to be a testament to the depth of love & respect an Animal is capable of having for a “kind loving” human.. Not surprised they love her sweet voice & songs, l do too & l too would be calmed in her lap as she gently waves her scarf to sooth🗣🎶🧣💘 She’s so special…
