Pang Chumpee is found dead by our field staff in the forest of Doi Phamuang Wildlife Sanctuary near Lampang. She was about 61 years old and died of natural causes. She was released almost 6 years ago by H.M. the Queen Sirikit and enjoyed her last years in the wild after many years of hard work in the logging business. As traditional, a large lotus leaf is used to cover the elephant's face.
