        Right from my childhood days I grown up in the vicinity of forest as my father served in forest department in different capacities at different places.
        The immense interest and curiosity about wild life formulated me into a wild life reporter too.
        The work of Mahouts and Kavadis' always fascinated and interested for me on the aspect of how these laymen tame and train the wild elephants at Sakrebailu camp. In this present era of science and technology, these mahouts and Kavadis' following the traditional methods taming wild elephants from many decades. This job poses a great threat, challenge and skills for these laymen who tames wile elephants understanding the behaviour of these big animals.
        Pledging their lives, mahouts and Kavadis' nutures these tamed elephants throughout their service.
The department authorities and veterinary doctor extending their constructive support and cooperation to these staff.
