Elephants have a very friendly atmosphere there & they are very comfortable with.
People in Kerala love Elephants than any other animals. People treat them as god, because the majority are Hindus & they have a lord named Ganesh. He has an Elephant face & people believe that Elephants are the advent of Lord Ganesh.

@cherianpsam0 I am in Kerala
@cherianpsam0 Wonderful pics , Just wondering do they roam on roads ? Isn't it scary ?
They roam on roads only with their caretakers & No need to scare...They are very friendly... Sometimes they become violent & that time the public will scare. That is an exceptional case...
