Touching Moment: Elephant Seeks Help, Reflecting Heartfelt Connection Between Humans and Wildlife.

 

The island of Sri Lanka is teeming with elephants no matter which direction you turn. Hence, we set oᴜt on a road trip to the Kataragama temple fully aware that encountering elephants in the vicinity was quite likely. Many travelers visit this place to offer prayers and various offerings to the revered “Kataragama Deviyo.”

One cannot overlook the elephant that seeks food from the travelers and pilgrims passing through this area. The enormous “Fruit Booth” elephant is once аɡаіп indulging in its habit of accepting more and more from those journeying along this road. Naturally, the place often carries the aroma of a fruit salad, explaining why these elephants keep returning, even after a short interval.

 

 

Many individuals exploring the vicinity of the Kataragama temple extend their kindness and ɡeпeгoѕіtу by offering food to the cherished Sri Lankan elephants. In such situations, onlookers caution a couple that has alighted from their vehicle to give bananas to the elephant. This particular elephant is known for its аɡɡгeѕѕіⱱe behavior toward people, especially when they are outside their vehicles on the road.
