Kabini
 They
sing at dawn, they sing at dusk, the day through they fly and play. From
the mighty tuskers to the mouse deer, Kabini is home to many a variety
of animals and birds though the elephants outnumber them. Today there is
a growing need to conserve elephants. Did you know that the ecological
impact of elephants is priceless? They modify their habitat by
converting savannah and woodlands to grasslands. They can provide water
for the other species by digging water holes in dry riverbeds and the
depressions created by their footprints and their bodies trap rainfall.
The humane side of them see them cry, play, and laugh. They have
incredible memory too. Enjoy them at Kabini. Birds flock here in large
numbers. Drive through the tall trees and rich vegetation casting an eye
on the ponds and hillocks. Everything is magical here, the winds, the
waters, the sun and the moon.
