Background: Currently the conflict between elephants and human are rising because they have less area to live.
Elephants are being squeezed into smaller area, since the local farmer plant the crops and elephants like to destroy
and eat them. As a result, the elephants frequently raid and destroy the crops which will cause a conflict between
human and elephant. Due to this reason, local government and organization which concerns about the wild life are
working together to save or conserve the elephants and reduce the conflict. This project aiming to assist local
governmental office named Way Kambas National Park which located in Elephant Conservation Centre to conserve
the sanctuary. Our project IS NOT a safari place, but it is mostly as a place for elephant conservation which facing

inside and managed by the Balai Taman Nasional Way Kambas / BTNWK (Way Kambas National Park) covering round
1.300 square kilometers in Lampung Province, Southern Sumatera Island. The park consists of swamp forest and
lowland rain forest.
There are around 60 elephants with 60 mahouts for each (1 mahout responsible for 1 elephant). All of the elephants
in the PKG are chained when they were in the stall during the night. The purpose of putting chain in one of their legs is
for monitoring, handle the elephants when they are stress, to distinguish between the PKG’s elephants and the wild
one. The mahout using special tool called “gancu” (little iron hammer with curve point) to handle the elephant. The
