Close encounter with an adorable elephant at Yala Safari Sri Lanka | Earth Lanka Events (Pvt) Ltd.,
Our recent guests at Yala National Park had close encounter with this beautiful elephant. The Sri Lankan elephant (Elephas maximus maximus ) is native to Sri Lanka and one of three recognised subspecies of the Asian elephant. Notice the shape of its head how it is different from the African elephant. Asian/Sri Lankan elephant’s head is twin domed with an indent in the center.

Two and a half elephants VS one wild water buffalo. This is the water buffalo that I nicknamed as Buffy. I have seen this guy hold off his ground even with a herd of elephants, but on this day it decided to move away quite quickly. The elephants also went the other way. No animal seeks confrontation while they are with their young. Certainly not elephants, they are too smart for that kind of behavior. . . .

Striking a Balance in Human-Wildlife Conflicts of India
The interaction between humans and wildlife in India’s Buxa Tiger Reserve (BTR) offers valuable insights into the dynamics of coexistence and conflict. From leopard-induced livestock losses to elephant crop raiding, the patterns of these interactions reveal a complex interplay between predators and prey. The financial repercussions of these wildlife encounters have spurred communities to adopt various coping mechanisms. Traditional approaches have proven ineffective, prompting the implementation of innovative solutions. Moreover, socio-economic factors significantly influence the intensity of wildlife incursions.
In order to gain a deeper understanding of these complex interactions, it is essential to expand the scope of these type of research. These researches are crucial for developing effective conservation and conflict resolution strategies that address the varied challenges faced by communities living alongside wildlife.
