Wild Art
Elephant Art
Elephants are natural artists. They are well known to doodle in the dirt with sticks. Ele Art is a stunning by-product of Perth Zoo’s enrichment program which keeps the elephants stimulated, healthy and happy. The paints used are water-based and are 100% non-toxic. Each piece is an original and no two pieces are ever the same. Each elephant has their own painting ‘signature’, painting with their own distinctive style and colour-preference.
One hundred percent of funds raised from the sale of each masterpiece helps Perth Zoo protect Sumatran Elephants in the wild. This includes supporting local patrol units to monitor and protect Sumatran Elephants in Bukit Tigapuluh Ecosystem.
