The Pinnawela Elephant Orphanage
The Pinnawela Elephant Orphanage, established in
1975, commenced with seven orphans. Today some
of these orphans enjoy the fortune of seeing
their grandchildren born in the same location.
The original objective of establishing the
orphanage inclined more towards tourism, but is
soon became a conservation and educational
centre. With the help of local and foreign
elephant experts, Pinnawela started a scientific
captive-breeding programme for elephants. The
free movement of the herd enhanced the chances
for respective individuals of both sexes to get
together and mate. The nearby river played a
dominant role in this regard, and in 1984, the
first baby of Pinnawela was born.
The success story of Pinnawela has drawn the
attention of scientists from all over the world.
A considerable number of books and research
articles on Pinnawela have been published in
several languages. The members of the Pinnawela
herd have been filmed, videoed and photographed
thousands of times by professionals.
