Despite their contrasting species, their connection transcended barriers and left a lasting imprint on both of their lives.

Tragically, their friendship was disrupted when Maliwan’s owner embarked on a journey across the country, using the magnificent pachyderm for elephant rides and showcasing her for a fee. This separation left a void in their hearts as they lost touch.
