Udawalawe Ethical Safari This Month – Pregnant elephant comes to say hello!

Pregnant elephant comes over to say hello!

On safari in Udawalawe National Park with Udawalawe Ethical Safari.

Our clients had this special experience of a pregnant female approaching us and calmly watching us. Note how our peaceful approach to safari results in the animals feeling comfortable enough to carry on their day to day life right in front of us.

Did you know that elephant pregnancies last almost 22 months! That may explain why a calf is protected so carefully by the whole herd, they have had 22 months to wait for its arrival.
