Kozhikamuthi | Centre for Conservation of Asian Elephants

Installed in the late 1800s to accommodate the elephants capture from the wild for timber logging purposes, the captive elephant camp at Kozhikamuthi is probably one of the oldest elephant camps in Asia. But today, the camp has evolved into a most indispensable, significant aspect in maintaining social and ecological harmony, and with the kind of progressive administration practices that are being implemented and the tools employed to maintain the elephants, the establishment hardly qualifies to be called a Captive Facility. The scope and purpose of its operation far exceed the captive norms and in all sense constitutes to be termed as a Conservation, Rescue, and Rehabilitation Centre. Central to all of this is perhaps the indigenous people - the Malasar and Kadars. Living with and caring for the largest mammals on land requires adherence, intelligence, compassion, and ardent fervor, to tend to, and walk alongside these magnificent beings. May this complex, beautiful, awe-inspiring bond forever continue. May the Kozhikamuthi elephant camp continue to be one of the very few, last-standing custodians of this beautiful, sacred relationship between man and animal.
