Animals

Indian elephants are magnificent creatures that depend on wetlands for survival. These water-rich areas provide essential resources, such as food, water, and shade, and serve as important social and breeding grounds for these highly intelligent animals.

In wetlands, Indian elephants feed on grasses, aquatic plants, fruits, and bark, which they manipulate with their versatile trunks. These elephants are also ecosystem engineers, creating waterholes and pathways that benefit countless other species.

Human activity, such as deforestation and agriculture, has put significant pressure on wetland habitats, threatening the survival of Indian elephants. Conservation initiatives, including the establishment of wildlife corridors and wetland restoration projects, are crucial for their protection.
