It ‘s hard to have some one to take the picture of me with elephants.. I have more ten thousand pics in my hard drive and there are only couple pictures of me in there and it’s hard to find it..

Great pictures, Supat – Appreciate all your pictures you share with us. Emily Fanning
Thank Emily.. I wish that I could go to the forest in the morning every day with camera and capture great picture of all elephants at TECC.,.

Wow, look at their eyes and yours! It is obvious that Prathida loves Jojo and Jojo loves her and they both love you – this is wonderful! Sure miss you all!
Thank Karen for your comments.. I could feel very special bond between these elephants.. Prathida can be dangerous for some mahouts like Tiam the mahout of Wanalee , but with me she is very gentle.. She might like me as I usually stay with Tantawan, Prathida she loves Tantawan so much.. Many time I could see Prathida becomes very talkative when she got close to Tantawan..
Thank for lovely comments..

Dangerous with Tiam? Wonder why. Up until last year she would be on the other side of the lean to where we feed them and everything was ok, she would be close to Jojo also, it was the three of them. But this year Tun said Wanalee didn’t want to leave Prathida out of the water, she blocked her, and Prathida didn’t like that and they have not been friends since then. When Prathida got close my substitute mahout had me get off Wanalee because he thought that Prathida would fight with Wanalee. She trumpeted loud but everything was ok.
What great photos of you Supat with my to favourite elephants, Prathida and Jojo. I love the photo of you hugging Prathida. I so love to give her a hug, she is so gentle and I miss her so much.
Thanks for sharing these wonderful photos.

I just hug her from my heart I wish she can feel it.. She is truly one of my inspiration..
Prathida never disappoint any one who join our mahout training course and she was one of elephants who bring our three day mahout course become very very popular.. Working with John was greatest opportunity and very special privilege to be beside of Prathida in the past..
