Elephants in the region love this tank, and they often swim around this tank with the herd. These types of large herds of elephants can be seen around the country all the time if you visit any national park or a conservation zone kept for wild animals. Many young elephants are playful and active with the idea of roaming across the regions.

Elderly elephants of the herd seem to be busy with eating all the green they can. Several dozen baby elephants are in large herds, but you can always see them being so playful and hasty, running across the fields chasing birds. These baby elephants are known to be the most aggressive out of all the elephants on the island. Take a brief moment and enjoy this amazing footage about spotting elephants.

However, around farming villages where elephants raid crops, many conflicts have caused casualties to both sides. They have set a lot of fences and electric fences with barriers around many villages and farmlands around national parks and many massive forest reserves. These elephants often run into traps and wells placed along with farms for water supply.
