Kuala Gandah Elephant Sanctuary
Kuala Gandah Elephant Sanctuary is located in Pahang and is a good place to go for a time of relaxation with your friends or family members. Plan to spend about 2 to 3 hours here. Run by the Department of Wildlife and National Parks (DWNP or Perhilitan) of Malaysia, this place is indeed a sanctuary for the wild elephants that have been relocated here.
These wild elephants were captured when they encroached (or rather the human beings encroached into their habitats) into the oil palm plantations and villages.
The Conservation Effort
The Elephant Translocation Team which was established in 1974 will begin to track the wild elephants once they got the news of the sight of the elephants.
The Kuala Gandah Elephant Conservation Centre was established in 1989. Using the trained elephants from Thailand and Myammar, the team will set to capture the elephants using tranquilizers and transport them to the centre using trucks.
