I got an exclusive chance to visit Elephants Camp at Thekkampatti near Coimbatore twice on Dec 2014 & Jan 2015. It was a thrilling experience to see huge elephants very closely at early morning on the banks of Bhavani river.Tamilnadu Goverment conducts elephants rejenuvation camp every year at Thekkampatti near Vanabadhra Kali Amman temple. The Mahouts of Tiruchi Fort temple elephant and Thiruvanaikaval temple elephant was very co operative.They allowed me to touch their elephants and helped me to take photos. I had close access to see elephants morning walking,bathing and feeding them.
