TN's Chadivayal Elephant Camp to Open for Eco-Tourism

The Tamil Nadu Forest Department is planning to open the Chadivayal Elephant Camp to the public.

This camp, located near the Siruvani foothills, will allow visitors to watch captive elephants being fed and bathed.

The camp has been upgraded with modern facilities and can accommodate up to 18 elephants.

Currently, it houses four elephants, including Muthu, a male elephant known for venturing into human settlements.

The camp aims to promote eco-tourism and educate the public about elephant conservation and conflict management.

Officials are working on a visitor schedule to ensure the elephants' welfare is not compromised.
