Anyway your experience was thrilling! Good thing the lone elephant was not on ‘Masth’ or things would have been different.Beware of lone elephants in the future or lone tusker with calves.

What actually I meant was we dont know what the guys who crosssed the elephants before us have done. The last week elephant attack was of the same nature. Some guys had irritated the elephant and it took its anger out on a family driven car. Even after so many years of regular driving through forest, I am still off afraid of elephants. You dont mess with a powerful animal like an elephant. Our coconut / arecanut trees are witness to their power in our guest house in Mudumalai best regards bala I didnt mean you were the boozing type.

At the outset, I agree it was stupid to get out and we realized our mistake.However we are not into partying and boozing as you put it.We are travellers and not tourists to begin with and we have been to Bandipur, Mudhumalai , Nagarhole and other forests several times in a year . In fact am going to Bandipur again this year . It was just an impulse to capture the elephant on a photograph that made us get out and it was a scary experience and we live to tell the story..thanks anyways for the warning and we have become much careful after the incident Bala – thanks for the comment.

Please dont do such dangerous stuff inside the forest.
