What is the Elephant Transit Home?

In the Udawalawe area, a centre called the Elephant Migration Home safely cares for orphaned baby elephants until adulthood. So, these baby elephants are well-fed and cared for until they can live independently in the wild. Since the baby elephants are only visible to visitors at specific times, the elephants can grow freely and develop their instincts with the herd in a wild environment with minimal human interaction. Visitors are allowed to watch them while they feed and also have the opportunity to learn how to safely care for the baby elephants during this meaningful and important time.
