Pictures from Wayanad Wildlife Preserve, Kerala

I’ve been in the forests of Kerala’s western mountains. I’ve got fast internet connection again, so here are some pictures. The first is actually from a bird sanctary near Mysore, Karnataka. It’s a 3 meter crocodile. Sorry. I’ll never be a photgrapher for National Geographic.

I had an exciting experience when an elephant in Wayanad near Muthanga got mad at us for being between between where she and her young one were to where they wanted to go. She charged twice. We had to peel out twice. No good pictures then, with all the bouncing. Here’s better elephant pictures from Wayanad near Thonpetty.

Here’s an Indian bison. They are tame, like cows, unlike American bison.Â

There’s a less wild area near there where anyone can drive and hike or have a picnic. My driver and I spent the afternoon there before going on our morning and afternood jeep “safaris”.
