Sobre
Fatos rápidos: Elefantes migram regularmente entre esta floresta e o vizinho Bengala Ocidental, seguindo caminhos antigos que precedem os assentamentos humanos. Mais de 50 espécies de mamíferos e 220 espécies de aves habitam esta paisagem extensa.
Destaques: Ao amanhecer, a floresta ganha vida com o som de elefantes trombetando e chapinhando no rio Machha, seus corpos cinzentos emergindo da névoa matinal. Observe manadas de 20 a 30 elefantes cruzando a água em fila indiana, um espetáculo que atrai cineastas de vida selvagem do mundo inteiro.
Dicas de quem conhece
- 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.
