Om
Raske fakta: Elefanter migrerer regelmessig mellom denne skogen og nabolandet Vest-Bengal, og følger urgamle stier som er eldre enn menneskelige bosetninger. Over 50 arter av pattedyr og 220 fuglearter kaller dette vidstrakte landskapet sitt hjem.
Høydepunkter: Ved daggry våkner skogen til lyden av trompetende elefanter som plasker i Machha-elven, med de grå kroppene som kommer frem fra morgentåken. Se flokker på 20 til 30 elefanter krysse vannet i enkeltfil, et skue som har tiltrukket seg dyrelivsfilmskapere 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.
