Our Current Programs:

  • Humanitarian Project: Providing volunteer health service to the communities challenged by human/elephant conflict

  • Karmic Reset (Cleansing):

  • Public Outreach: educating the western world about the risks of species extinction, via installations at gatherings like yoga festivals and Burning Man.

  • Production of original content for Instagram and other social media.

  • Public Education and Activism: Our quarter million followers on social media provides us great leverage. We provide current, as well as historical perspective, about elephant issues. This public presence allows us to influence public discourse regarding elephants. As example, we led the push to put Ringling Bros out of business, convince Trip Advisor to stop promoting elephant rides and to convince tourists not to support unethical elephant businesses.

  • Ele-Care Volunteer Veterinarians & Educational Exchange: Periodic tours - bringing western veterinarians to the front lines of human/elephant conflicts.

  • Frontline News & Conservation Outreach: providing real time news from the frontlines via our Youtube tv channel and archiving this content for the benefit of volunteer trainings.

  • Provide a one-stop source of information and network of collaborators for news media and international filmmakers to connect. BBC, M6 TV of Europe and others present the stories that we prioritise.

  • Elephant Habitat Preservation: We continually map existing corridors to better protect these locations from further development

  • Sustainable Community Management & Ethical Elephant Management: When we see or are told about unethical elephant treatment, we notify the wildlife department and if necessary, create videos to incentivise changes in behavior in the accused.

  • Innovation: We developed the “Wind Torch” - a scarecrow type device that keeps elephants out of cultivated fields. We ran a pilot study in India and Sri Lanka, proving the efficacy of the device and are now implementing their use.

About Elephants:

Elephants are Highly Intelligent, Altruistic, Emotional and Self-Aware Sentient Beings.

The Sri Lankan Elephant is one of three subspecies of Asian Elephants, as well as the largest. You can tell an Asian Elephant apart from an African Elephant by their pink patched skin painted with freckles. a rainbow arch-shaped back, much smaller ears, and of course their Heart-shaped head and Heart-tipped trunk.

Height: 8 - 10 ft Weight: 4,400 - 12,000 lbs"
