If I ever won the lottery, I would donate whatever was needed to this place to make it financially sustainable for the next 100 years. How anyone could harm an elephant is beyond me.
i love you and i dont know you but your words its ALL i need to know about you, i say that all the time, if i had a million dollars id give to these people and the many who need in Africa as well, id be poor again in no time i couldnt help it, and believe me i would do it, just wish that with so many billionaires out there they wouldnt miss a million or two in their accoints and they SHOULD be human and help these amazing beings and people who try to save and help animals in need
To see an elephant of this size put herself in reverse and extend her leg to Lek is simply incredible. The bond between Faa Mai and Lek is beautiful to see.
Amazing connection Lek has with these adorable Elephants. Don't know how anyone would want to mistreat them. We can learn so much from them about, Empathy and Loyalty
For anyone to own an elephant, they should be required to watch 62 hours of Leks videos. The elephant world, I mean THE WHOLE WORLD WOULD BE A BETTER PLACE
Here is a great article from ten years ago that highlights a few honors Lek got, including being invited to Washington by Hillary Clinton (who, btw, has a passion for elephant conservation) to be honored as one of six Women Heroes of Conservation. However, I agree with you, she needs to be honored again - and in a very big way. Hopefully, someone will pick up on that soon. www.chiangraitimes.com/featured/time-magazines-hero-of-asia/amp
She had the biggest smile on her face when she was leading Miss Lek around by the trunk……HaHaHa…..Keep her away from everyone else……She’s all mine !…..HaHaHa
I'll never stop being amazed at how such a huge animal walking backwards knows exactly where an object is. In this case a very respected and loved object.💖
I love the way she gently walks backward and lifts her leg to accomodare Lek and all the sidestepping. What a sense of humour. They all want a piece of Lek. This is too beautiful thrse gentle loving giants. Bless them all and the whole sanctuary. 🙏💜🙏💙🙏❤🐘🐘🐘😍😍😍
Oh what it must be like to be so very loved by an elephant. Faa Mai is at her happiest having Lek all to herself, tucked safely between her front legs. So sweet how Faa Mai wraps her trunk around Lek’s hand as they walk. Bliss to watch!
Elephants certainly must have a sense of humor...the way Faa Mai planned on walking backwards and doing exactly what she did with Lek. What brains elephants possess. Grand animals!
Omg, Faa Mai is the silliest elephant ever. I just laugh the while time her & Lek or Darrick are together. All the elephants are worried about food but Faa Mai is worried up Lek.
the elephants even though they are large animals they are extremely gentle and sensitive caring creatures and you see the unconditional love they show with their human friends ❤
OMG wasnt sure why Faa Mai was reversing down to the river until she lifted her leg to capture Lek. She is obsessed with Lek and what an amazing tribute to their relationship. Absolutely beautiful they all seem to surround Lek to protect her 😎🐘🐘
Love seeing the elephants interact with you Lek Especially Fa Mai She is so funny Bless you Lek & thank you for all you do & not forgetting the army of helpers
Each one of these gigantic mounds of cuteness wants to treat her like their own personal baby - it's impossible not to wear a silly grin when watching these episodes
Lek, you are an angel and a blessing. What a gift you are to all of us. The elephants are magnificent and are to be protected and cherished at any cost. You are a hero. Love peace and eternal light. xxxxx
It's amazing to see how terrible careful and gentle they are with Lek. They seem to have a good understanding of the fragility of a human being in comparison to them. It is also amazing how some of them seem to complain when Fai Mai keeps Lek all to herself, not wanting to share her with the others. The way she takes Lek by the hand and guides her to where she wants her to go astonishes me. What a blessing and grand privilege also!
its like a love overdose. she can bearly walk without them wanting to make sure she knows about all the love they feel for her. lek is so inspiring. my love to you all
I will NEVER get tired of watching your videos! Beautiful place for beautiful creatures. They need so much gentle handling and so much TLC after lives full of hardship and abuse. THANK YOU....xoxoxox
Have you seen the lullaby Lek sings to Faa Mai as she lays down, curls up her trunk and in the last second grins real big? If not, u must see it!!! So adorable!!!
If i ever know when im to die...i want to be here. Im not a rich person, but i will give you all my earthly riches so you can continue doing the most beautiful thing
Dizzie Chef You’re exactly right; Faa Mai is very possessive of Lek. She only lets Thong Ae spend time with her, but as you can see at 5:32, Faa Mai took her back after a few minutes, lol. Lek has also said that Faa Mai tucks her under her like she’d do if she had a baby. Faa Mai was the first elephant born at ENP and Lek spent a lot of time with her, so I think Faa Mai also sees her as a parent/nanny figure.
This is unadulterated joy. The paradise that Lek built and all the thousands of lives she saved is inspirational and a beautiful thing to be able to witness for of us around the world. Whoever could watch this and put a thumbs down is missing something truly extraordinary. I live for these videos.
I send my love to the loving buffalo,he is a peaceful creature from God also.god bless Mrs lek and her husband darrick,for helping save,preserve elephants providing them with a nice place to live,food,love.❤️🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘
All these elephants adore this woman. How wonderful it must be to be loved by elephants.
If I ever won the lottery, I would donate whatever was needed to this place to make it financially sustainable for the next 100 years. How anyone could harm an elephant is beyond me.
I just read your comment and realized you basically had the same wish
and wil you adopt me in this place?
i would work for free.
i love you and i dont know you but your words its ALL i need to know about you, i say that all the time, if i had a million dollars id give to these people and the many who need in Africa as well, id be poor again in no time i couldnt help it, and believe me i would do it, just wish that with so many billionaires out there they wouldnt miss a million or two in their accoints and they SHOULD be human and help these amazing beings and people who try to save and help animals in need
To be hugged and loved by elephants. She is the luckiest women in the world❤️❤️
To see an elephant of this size put herself in reverse and extend her leg to Lek is simply incredible. The bond between Faa Mai and Lek is beautiful to see.
I can't imagine what Lek was saying during the reverse action
An absolute show of respect in ellie language.
I couldn't agree more, absolutely Amazing!
Utter LOVE. I'm speechless.🤗🤗🐘🐘👏🏻👏🏻🍉🍉🌽🌽🕊🕊🕊🕊😇😇😇🐘🐘🐘🤗🤗🤗
@Theopisti Panagiotakou I guess lek seems like a baby in comparison to size.
Amazing connection Lek has with these adorable Elephants. Don't know how anyone would want to mistreat them. We can learn so much from them about, Empathy and Loyalty
That's what all Animal Human interaction should look like. An immense bond and trust. Thank you for sharing and loving ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ xxx
The elephants are so loving and protective of Lek. They know she is responsible for their rescues.
For anyone to own an elephant, they should be required to watch 62 hours of Leks videos. The elephant world, I mean THE WHOLE WORLD WOULD BE A BETTER PLACE
I agree, she's like the "Elephant Whisperer"
No one should "own" an elephant. Perhaps a caretaker but never an owner. I would say these elephants own this lady. She is THEIR pet.
Personally I think the concept that we own ANY living being is not a good one
Lek is a WORLD treasure and deserves world wide recognition for the wonderful work that she does.
Yes sir .

Yes she does!!!!!
Yes, she certainly does ! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
⁰
The way they stand over her and surround her is how they behave around baby elephants.
Yes ❤
She had the biggest smile on her face when she was leading Miss Lek around by the trunk……HaHaHa…..Keep her away from everyone else……She’s all mine !…..HaHaHa
That is amazing. She treated her like she was her child.
Wundervolles miteinander und Akzeptanz 🎉❤
How magical a them.nd how animals are gentle giants. they these qonderful creatures are so so precious and also those who love them
I swear you can see how happy that elephant is on her face!
I'll never stop being amazed at how such a huge animal walking backwards knows exactly where an object is. In this case a very respected and loved object.💖
They obviously treasure you.
Protect Lek at all costs. Her job is a blessing to this world.
I love the way she gently walks backward and lifts her leg to accomodare Lek and all the sidestepping. What a sense of humour. They all want a piece of Lek. This is too beautiful thrse gentle loving giants. Bless them all and the whole sanctuary. 🙏💜🙏💙🙏❤🐘🐘🐘😍😍😍
Oh what it must be like to be so very loved by an elephant. Faa Mai is at her happiest having Lek all to herself, tucked safely between her front legs. So sweet how Faa Mai wraps her trunk around Lek’s hand as they walk. Bliss to watch!
That sweet lady is nimble fearless within the elephant's legs. God bless their gentle souls.
god bless her back ❤😊
Faa Mai showed great respect to Lek❤ (what we humans should do towards all those who rescue)
🙏🙏
I just can't stop watching this. There is so much love and protection here between Lek and the elephant.
I really enjoy watching y'all may uall be happy and full of love always
@diana balak
"the elephant" is Faa Mai, the first baby born free at ENP, bonded from birth to Lek as one of her family. :)
Elephants certainly must have a sense of humor...the way Faa Mai planned on walking backwards and doing exactly what she did with Lek. What brains elephants possess. Grand animals!
Always amazed to see how gentle and cautious these large, powerful animals can be! We should be honored to share the world with them😎🙏
ดูแลสุขภาพเดิ้อจ้าทั้งคนทั้งช้าง
These elephants need human care from this woman😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Omg, Faa Mai is the silliest elephant ever. I just laugh the while time her & Lek or Darrick are together. All the elephants are worried about food but Faa Mai is worried up Lek.
THIS WOMAN IS AWESOMME TO THIS ELEPHANT VERY CARING KIND MAY GOD BLESS HER. ALWAYS❤❤❤
the elephants even though they are large animals they are extremely gentle and sensitive caring creatures and you see the unconditional love they show with their human friends ❤
I love this so much…..she just loves Lek….absolutely adorable
Lek is Fah Mai's cherished baby! 😊🐘
That was so funny
Seeing Fah Mai in reverse
She is so protective over Lek
OMG wasnt sure why Faa Mai was reversing down to the river until she lifted her leg to capture Lek. She is obsessed with Lek and what an amazing tribute to their relationship. Absolutely beautiful they all seem to surround Lek to protect her 😎🐘🐘
I wondered the same thing.
I was shocked
@@CarolKishen Yes she wasnt mucking around I was sure it wasnt going to end well! 🤔 i went from O M G 😨 to AWWHHH 😁 lol
@@CarolKishen perfect example of the love between human and animal
nope. they want her all to themself lol
May God bless you lek with long life health and strenght so you can take care of these gentle giants
How special she is to be so loved .
Love seeing the elephants interact with you Lek
Especially Fa Mai
She is so funny
Bless you Lek & thank you for all you do & not forgetting the army of helpers
They sure do love you Lek. Elephants are so intelligent. You have the best job in the world.
Amazing Lek gets anything done, everyone insisting on a hug! 😀
Lek, the elephant Angel. Thank you for your continued love and devotion to your beautiful Ellie’s. ❤️🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘❤️
Each one of these gigantic mounds of cuteness wants to treat her like their own personal baby - it's impossible not to wear a silly grin when watching these episodes
Loved that Michael Jackson back slide foot work!!!🤭
Lek, you are an angel and a blessing. What a gift you are to all of us. The elephants are magnificent and are to be protected and cherished at any cost. You are a hero. Love peace and eternal light. xxxxx
I know they all love Lek but the relationship with Fa mai is so special 💕
The level of protection shows that the love the elephants have for her and that is special ♥️🙏🏽
YELP ♥️
It is always to nice to see how Fa Mai loves you so much Lek. So sweet
Faa Mai owns Lek, it's so funny when she puts her between her forelegs like an calf. Lovely. 👋😀🇳🇱
It's amazing to see how terrible careful and gentle they are with Lek. They seem to have a good understanding of the fragility of a human being in comparison to them. It is also amazing how some of them seem to complain when Fai Mai keeps Lek all to herself, not wanting to share her with the others. The way she takes Lek by the hand and guides her to where she wants her to go astonishes me. What a blessing and grand privilege also!
Faa Mai has been doing this with Lek all her life, and I think Faa Mai very much enjoys it. :) Their smiles are readily apparent!
She will never forget you saved her
Faa Mai has been raised by Lek she wasn't rescued she was born free at ENP
@@alking4153 thank you. I'm new to these loving gentle giants. Lek raised her! Omg!!! Lek IS THE ELEPHANT EARTH ANGEL!🙏🏻🙏🏼🍉🐘🐘🌽🍌🤗🕊🐘🐘🐘🙏🏽🙏🏾🙏🏿

Lots of love, Boss Lady Lek with the huge heart. God bless you, always.
So obvious that she loves Lek. Funny girl. How lovely when the two elephants greet one another. What a happy sight and lots of happy sounds.
I know nothing of elephant behavior but one thing is clear as a bell...Lek is very much loved and respected by these gentle giants.

The elephant that wants her more. Does he think of her as the baby or what is the feeling. I love the closeness
Dizzie Chef You’re exactly right; Faa Mai is very possessive of Lek. She only lets Thong Ae spend time with her, but as you can see at 5:32, Faa Mai took her back after a few minutes, lol.

I would love to be there for the rest of my life
They adore her, simply amazing! They are so huge, yet they are agile and so gentle with her.

Wonderful how all the animals are at such great peace there with Lek and her crew!
Faa Mai doesn't want to share Lek with the other elephants. She's very possessive! Lol!
I bet she doesn't want to share her with other humans either.
She so sweet 🥲 she broke my heart 💜
Thankyou for all you and your people do for these beautiful creature love you a special big hugs to the Princess herself FAA MAI 🥰your an Angel
You elephants are so cute, and obviously trust you and like you. I wish I could understand your language. I speak English. The elephants are adorable.
