Luk Chai’s summer plans
For Luk Chai, summer is the perfect time to take a cooling dip. Although he doesn’t know it, he’s busy protecting Asian Elephants too. That’s because every visitor to Taronga Zoo boosts our efforts to help ensure Luk Chai is not the last of his kind. His summer is all worked out. How about yours? Don’t miss bath time daily at 10:30am and keeper talks at 1pm.
Watch his playful antics in our latest video.
