The lord of the jungle is indeed the elephant and not the tiger as many believe
. Elephants in the wild call for more caution than any other animal.
Elephants have figured in our mythology and have been a part of Indian life for
three thousand years. Ganesha the elephant headed Hindu god is worshipped as a
harbinger of good luck and prosperity. Elephants are a common sight on our roads
and temples and as a source of power still find use in forestry operations.
Forests of South India are well known for their elephant populations Nagarhole
and Periyar are two noted parks where elephants roam freely with other animals
like tiger , leopard , gaur, monkeys and deer . The lake at Periyar enables one
to explore its forests on motor boats which allows close and safe observations
of elephant and other animals . while at Nagarhole trained elephants and four
wheeled drives takes one to the park.
