Baby Chaba

Baby Chaba’s Story

The Elephant Project is proud to announce the release of its newest addition to the Save Us™ stuffed animal collection: “Baby Chaba.” As our first and only stuffed toy to be named after a living elephant, the Baby Chaba plushie represents its real-world, once-captive counterpart that currently resides in Elephant Nature Park, an elephant rescue sanctuary run by legendary advocate, Lek Chailert, in Thailand. 

In addition to being the newest and most tangible character of the heartwarming collection, Baby Chaba will also be accompanied by a small children’s book that expands upon the story of the real Chaba, who was rescued alongside her mother by Chailert in August of 2021.

The Elephant Project will donate 100% of all net proceeds from Baby Chaba toy sales to on-the-ground non-profit organizations like Elephant Nature Park, The Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, The Elephant Cooperation and Trunks Up Foundation; all of whom share our dedication to fight the poaching crisis and provide care to captive elephants.

Our Baby Chaba plushie represents the chance of a new life for every elephant still in captivity. We are so honored to be sharing the real life story of Baby Chaba. The Elephant Project hopes to continue to inspire children and increase education about the extreme intelligence, ethos, and plight of the elephant for the next generation.
