Little Rock Zoo has been helping fund Asian Elephant Support's work for many years. They have developed a particular commitment to the Myanmar Elephant Hospital camp, and last year made a generous donation for medical and veterinarian supplies for them.
As this location will now be visited by a newly established eco tourism camp, 'Life in Oozie Village Ecohut' (L.O.V.E.), AES decided to add funds for mahout uniforms.
Good mahoutship is a profession and decent uniforms help both to identify the mahouts to the visitors and acknowledge their status.
