Om
Hurtige fakta: Elefanter vandrer regelmæssigt mellem denne skov og nabolandet Vestbengalen og følger gamle stier, der er ældre end menneskelige bosættelser. Over 50 pattedyrarter og 220 fuglearter kalder dette vidtstrakte landskab deres hjem.
Højdepunkter: Ved daggry vågner skoven til live med lyden af trompetende elefanter, der plasker i Machha-floden, deres grå kroppe træder frem fra morgentågen. Se flokke på 20 til 30 elefanter krydse vandet i enkelt række, et skue der har tiltrukket dyrelivsfilmskabere fra hele verden.
Insidertips
- Drive your own vehicle rather than taking a safari jeep, as you can stop at your leisure and wait quietly near waterholes.
- Carry binoculars and a zoom lens; the watchtowers near Dimna Lake offer excellent elevated views of elephants drinking below.
- Wear muted colors like olive, brown, or khaki to blend in, and avoid perfumes or scented lotions that alert animals to your presence.
- Visit on weekdays to avoid crowds, as weekends see a surge of picnickers who scare wildlife deeper into the forest.
