Elephants love to paint because they get to do a fun activity with their mahouts. They get
huge amounts of attention, positive reinforcement and treats from their mahout -and so of course they are going to enjoy themselves. At http://www.elephantstay.com/ they only use younger elephants that are too young to give rides and it really is amazing to watch how everyone plays together in between and physically and verbally show their love to all of the people they associate with this activety.
Today's "star artist" is AKA PETER (Noppakhao)
Information as always from Elephantstay's own Ewa Narkiewicz and Michelle Reedy.
