A swift ride up the hills of approximately 70 km towards Kandy can take you to visit the ‘Orphaned’ Elephants of the ‘wild’ at Pinnawela, where they are tamed, fed & cared for and to watch them sway down the road to their way to a daily bath that they take in the nearby Mahaweli River.

This is a treat for the eyes as the baby Elephants make use of the water to play, dance & have fun with the others, as the kids find it hilarious.

Watch how well these orphans are making up their sad lives to be with a ‘community’ of other like minded creatures. They have survived harsh conditions in the wilderness without their parents, almost starving with the least amount of edible vegetation & water to live their natural lives.

Human population growth, development of remote cultivation & expanding human settlements in the vicinity of the wilderness areas where wild animals live are being taken over which is contracting the ‘space’ for Elephants to live & migrate as they usually do in their natural behavior & habitat.

So this is the main rationale for this shelter to help ‘protect’ their space in this Orphanage for these gentle giants who are earmarked for extinction in the near future & available for export to spacious lands.
