Seems humans are not the only ones going viral as a small village in northeast Thailand has become a popular attraction after beautiful pictures emerged of Elephants and people living side-by-side.

People who live in the town of Ban Ta Klang in Thailand’s Surin province, keep elephants as domesticated animals, letting them live in their midst as pets, if not members of the family.

Tourism in the area has given the mahouts (those who ride and care for the elephants) a better alternative to the way of life instead of begging on the streets in Thailand’s larger cities.
