When elephants take a mud bath, they are not just about pleasure and relaxation. Going for a mud bath helps the elephant’s skin to avoid getting sunburnt and to cool off from the harsh direct sunlight. It also helps to act as a sunscreen for the elephant while helping its skin become healthier by blocking the sun’s harmful rays. #ElephantFreedomProject #elephantsanctuarychiangmai #mudbath #amazinganimals #elephants #elephantprotection | Elephant Freedom Project
