I am Ari. I am quite popular as I frequently cross the electric fence at Pokunuthanna and featured on the cover page of "Gaja", the scientific journal of the Asian Elephant Specialist's Group, too.

I have a compelling story to share with you!!!

I am Eran, a young male elephant about 15-20 years old. This is the age when I must leave the comfort of my childhood home and find a place of my own.

I was featured in the journal of "Animal Conservation" due to my fence-breaking adventures!!!

I am Jeewan. When a fence cut through my homeland, I am intelligent enough to use tree trunks as tools to break fences, not out of anger, but because I refuse to give up my right to live. Hear my voice, understand my struggle, and help create a world where elephants and people can share the land with respect.

I am Harsh. Today, my home is cut in half by a motorway. You honk, you race, and you complain that we are in your way. But tell me, who is really invading whom?

My Name is Paba. A mother, a leader, a protector of a family—15 to 20 elephants. The whole family depend on me when finding food and shelter...

I am Rambo — the elephant that has stood along the Udawalawe–Thanamalwila road for over three decades.
