Why should we care about elephants in Kerala specifically?
The captive elephants in Kerala are among the most highly abused in the world, and very few organizations have been able to address elephant captivity issues in the region. This means the elephants in Kerala are among the most in need of assistance worldwide. Elephants, as highly intelligent, sensitive, and social creatures, are able to experience extraordinary suffering, which makes rescue and assistance efforts all the more important.
Why should I support the Kerala Elephant Foundation specifically?
KEF is specialized in rescuing elephants in the spot where it's perhaps needed most worldwide, seeing as other organizations have fled the region. We are working on the frontlines and on the ground to get to the hardest-to-reach elephants.
