#RescueAlert The moment our caregivers realised Hari liking for bananas, we knew exactly how to prepare for his back to our centre journey. As he gets ready to leave behind years of suffering, our team has filled the ambulance with everything he loves — bunches of ripe bananas, fresh fruits and fresh fodder, to bring him comfort during the long journey. More than just a rescue, it’s the start of a new chapter, and we want him to feel safe and cared for from the very first moment. Watch the video to see how we prepared our elephant ambulance with care and compassion. #HariRescue

#RESCUEALERT #HARIRESCUE WE’VE GOT HARI! It wasn’t easy, but Hari is safely in the ambulance and on his way to the Wildlife SOS elephant hospital! Hari was scared and agitated, and the large shouting crowd of bystanders made the situation worse. Thankfully, our skilled rescue team is managing his pain, giving him treats, and slowly winning his trust. With calm resolve and petience, the team was able to coax Hari into the Elephant Ambulance. Heroes! We’re not sure how long the drive will take. Traffic makes the trip slow-going, and monsoon rains have slowed our journey down. The unsettled weather may make our team’s work more difficult, but Hari is loving the cool rain and tasty treats! The drive could take 24 hours.
