UDAWALAWE ELEPHANT TRANSIT HOME

Udawalawe Elephant Transit Home is a refuge for baby elephants, the majority of which have been affected by the tragic elephant – human conflict (when mothers are often separated from their young or even killed).  This incredible project provides food, medical care, and anything else a baby elephant needs.  When the elephants are big and strong enough, they are released back into the wilderness to start living a ‘normal' elephant life. Easily accessible from Udawalawe National Park itself, visitors can go to the Elephant Transit Centre at specific times in the day to enjoy the feeding hour, when the small elephants rush to drink milk and play with their mates.  Like any other babies, elephants like showing off, especially when spectators are around so the event can become a great source of entertainment!
