At the elephant ranch, you'll be seeing the largest land animal on Earth. It is home to Asian elephants, which are slightly smaller than their African cousin. Asian elephants are identified by their smaller, rounder ears.
The ranch offers public tours that last one hour long, during which you'll get an educational presentation and an intimate and up close experience with the elephants.
