Travel to Kuala Gandah Elephant Sanctuary

Today I went to Kuala Gandah Elephant Sanctuary to give a talks on food packaging for nearly retired Department of Wildlife and National Parks officers. I took this opportunity to visit the elephant sanctuary located nearby. Kuala Gandah Elephant Conservation centre was established by the Department of Wildlife and National Parks in 1989. The centre is the base for Elephant Relocation Team, which began the elephant translocation programme in 1974. The only center in Malaysia, the team is dedicated to locating, subduing and translocating elephants from areas where their habitant were encroached by plantation or other human development to other location such National Reserved Park.
