@🇱🇰 Sri Lanka, Pinnawala Pinnavira Elephant Orphanage Elephant Orphanage was built in 1975 and is one of the world's largest elephant rescue centers, mainly adopting homeless, falling into deep pits or traps, out of elephant groups, especially seriously injured young elephants. To the east is the main park of elephant life, you can see how the baby elephant eats; to the west, Ma Oya River is a place where the elephant baths daily. The elephant baths 🛁 twice a day (10~12 and &14~16). The elephant team set off in a vast manner and took a bath on the river beach in the west. Paper products made like manure are the national rituals of Sri Lanka.

One of the projects worth visiting in Sri Lanka, visit wild elephants. Everyone will take a local dedicated jeep. Then cross the jungle of the protected area to find elephants. You can see interesting Asian elephants here. It is worth it.

This reserve has pure beauty! It's so peaceful inside, a great place to escape the bustling city. You can walk a lot of different paths in the park, some are short walks for people who don't want to go too far, some are long walks for people who walk longer. There is also a bike path there. There are also many monkeys there, which is really interesting! We also found a turtle in the river. This place is definitely underrated and should be noticed by more people visiting Kandy!

Sri Lanka has the world's largest Asian elephant population, and despite the government's law banning wild elephants, it is still facing extinction. There are many reasons for this, such as killing people and animals, the need for religious culture and entertainment industries to be kept in captivity, etc., but it is well known that elephants have extremely low reproduction rates and survival rates under captivity because they belong only to nature. Elephants belong to a complex family social structure in the natural environment, requiring dozens or even hundreds of square kilometers of space for activities, but in captivity, they have no space to live in the wild at all, and can only be forced to strip from the family and limit it to more than a dozen square meters of space. The final is gloomy. In Sri Lanka's Kadura and Mineria National Parks, which together cover more than 150 square kilometers, are a paradise for wild elephants, rich in vegetation and green grass next to the reservoir, attracting hundreds of elephants foraging. Visitors take off-road vehicles, just look far away, and do not affect the life of the elephant group. This is the way I admire, not captive while protecting wild elephants, but also their undisturbed natural environment.
