The elephants are rescued from brutal and dangerous logging (mostly for teak) work, where they are often without sources of careful supervision and medical care. Some are elderly and are ready for a quiet life, after many years of hard work.

The independent organisation ElefantAsia believes in giving practical and impartial advice to visitors wishing to ride an elephant during their stay in Laos. Potential visitors to these camps may wish to contact ElefantAsia in advance of any planned trip.

"The Elephant Park Project” found near Luang Prabang in northern Laos in South-East Asia is an educational organisation that aims to raise awareness about the plight of Asian elephants. One way it raises money is by hosting short visits to the village, or arranging longer residential and multi-activity visits. Visitors are welcome to visit the animals and spend between a half-day and four days with them and their carers.
