If you are an avid animal lover, the fauna in Wayanad fascinates you. Monkeys sit on the stone boulders, turning their indifferent backs to humans. Black-naped hares play hide and seek in the shrubbery, and wild dogs and bison are regularly seen prowling amidst the forest. The sanctuary is also home to several exotic birds that flock there at all times of the year.
But whenever we speak of fauna in Wayanad, elephants top the list. This is because the sight of these elephants provides us with one of those unforgettable experiences that make up the lives of animal lovers.
The dung and tracks on your way to the pool in the Wayanad sanctuary prove that elephants frequent the pool at night. A half-moon showed in the sky, and the entire scene was ethereal. The reptile population in Wayanad is also on the increase.
If you are looking for more adventure, book a jeep safari in the forest. Make sure to get prior permission. Carry a mosquito repellent ointment with you. Take a guide with you to give you the details of all the fauna in Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary.
