Sri Lankan VS African Safari | Exploring Udawalawe National Park

- čas přidán 27. 06. 2024
- We've been to many safaris in Africa, so I (Adam) was excited to explore what Sri Lanka has to offer in one of it's more accessible National Parks (Udawalawe).
Udawalawe National Park is known mostly for it's elephants, so I knew what to expect, but I wasn't disappointed. Elephants are one of my favourite animals so it was a special moment to be able to watch them roam free.
I also visited the nearby Elephant Transit Home which was also an amazing experience to see rescued orphan elephants and learn about the program and how they are released back into the wild.

Great video, first safari I've heard about outside of Africa, keep up the good work.
Thank you 😊
Sri Lanka pinnawala elephant orphanage is the world’s 1st elephant orphanage and the largest in the world
This is true, but they do not release elephants back to the wild and from what I understand they also sell them on to other people. I'm not sure of how ethical their program is
@@WhereNextFamily Elephants in pinnawela are domesticated elephants and their off springs, they will never survive in the wild, hence they have to be taken cared of for life
As a Sri Lankan Wildlife Videographer now living in Kenya, I would suggest you to visit Kumana National Park (Leopards), Horton Plains National Park ( Mountain Lascape, cold climate and Mountain Leopards) and Sinharaja Forest Reserve (Birding) , if you want to see the most beautiful sightings. But to be honest Sri Lanka is nothing like Africa.. it's a completely different experience.. 😊😊
Agreed! I would love to visit all of these places (and will!).
This trip was only to check if my clients will enjoy the experience and for sure they will 😊
Thanks for the advice 🙏
God bless you and your family

Welcome to Sri Lanka
If I am correct Sri Lanka s elephant ophernage started in 1975 . Much before other elephant ophernage s and shelters in other countries. Including Africa. Please check and let us know. I may be wrong. But 100 % sure Sri Lanka started in 1975.
Have a nice and safe journey
Thats interesting. Accordingly to online sources this particular place was started in 1995, but it's possible there is another one in the country that opened earier
Gear ❤❤❤
🙌
Thats not indian elephant its Sri lankan elephant, Sri lankan elephant different from indian elephant Commonly its Asian elephant.
There're no species like Srilankan elephant or indian elephant. All are asian elephants . Their codons in DNA are the same . ❤
You are right, I mis-spoke. I meant to say Asian Elephant 🙌
Chris Hemsworth talking about Elephants 😂

Hi friends WELCOME TO SRI LANKA
Thank you 😊
Yo green world 🌎
🙏
Habarana is my favorite. Lots of Tuskers can be seen.
Oh cool. We'll look into it!
Salutari din concediu ,din vietnam.
Thank you 😊 welcome to the channel
Good vlog indeed 🚀
Thank you 🙌
There is no Indian elephant category. We can see only African Elephants live at Africa, Asian elephant live all over the Asia
I actually mis-spoke. I should have said Asian elephant. BUT the Asian elephant is split into subspecies, one of which is the Indian elephant. These ones however are Sri Lankan Elephant
totally wrong there are three sub species of Asian elephants. Sumatran ,Sri Lankan and Indian. Elephas maximus sumatrensis, Elephas maximus maximus and Elephas maximus indicus.
@@Phantom-ys5ur 100% correvt
Indian elephants 😂😂😂
Hi.. Kenya is feeling the void...haha... Wow!!! is that really sLanka???
Don't worry. We're back now, just posting content from last month 🙌
Strange some of the guides are fluent in English. That kinda limits their appeal to a majority of the English-speaking visitors to Sri Lanka.
I think it could be one of those "get what you pay for" situations. If I had booked the safari with the camp it would have been 4 x the price 😅
What camera are you using for filming?
Sony FX30 but its overkill for a vlog like this
Those small elephants are females male grown Asian elephants are very big
Yes agreed, but still typically smaller than an Afircan elephant
