A visit to the
Elephant Conservation Center could be the highlight of your trip to Laos!
Centuries
ago, Laos was known as the ‘Land of a Million Elephants,’ and although the Asiatic
elephant has endured as a national icon, their numbers are in severe decline. It is estimated that there are only about 800
elephants left in the country; 400 in the wild and 400 in captivity.
