Dubare Elephant Camp is a project undertaken by the Karnataka Forest Department and Jungle Lodges and Resorts Ltd. to facilitate interactions between humans and elephants. Situated on the banks of the River Kaveri in the district of Kodagu in Karnataka, this camp offers tourists an intimate experience with elephants, allowing them to engage in activities like feeding, bathing, and riding. The camp is not only a sanctuary for elephants but also serves as a training center where mahouts instruct the elephants with commands and communicate using a language exclusive to this art. The lush green surrounding with teak, rosewood, and other trees provides a serene backdrop. The area is also a habitat for a variety of other wildlife, making it a fantastic location for nature lovers and wildlife enthusiasts. Dubare is not only about elephants; it's about understanding the ecology of the region, the importance of conservation, and recognizing the gentle giants' role within it.
