Elephant Safaris in India
India holds more than half of global elephant population. In India, the
association between man and elephant goes back 5000 years. Celebrated
in mythology, heralded as a symbol of India's imperial past and part of
the religious ceremonies of temples in South India, the elephant is an
integral part of Indian folklore. In the North-East, the creature has
been domesticated and serves its owner in so many ways that it is
considered part of the family. The elephant-headed Ganesha is one of
India's most popular deities.
Corbett tiger reserve is the northernmost extend of the Asian Elephant,
while Kaziranga in the northeast and the southern domain of Bandipur,
Nagarahole and Periyar are some of the finest remaining habitats of
these giants in India. At Theppakadu, near Mudumalai Wildlife
Sanctuary, more elephants have been born in captivity than anywhere
else in the world. However, the ultimate experience is an elephant
safari, where not only do you get deep penetrating forays into the
jungle and excellent game viewing and bird watching opportunities, but
also a chance to interact with these gentle giants.
