Project Elephant-Elephant conservation and more

Project Elephant was introduced to protect and save elephants. Elephants are among the most intelligent of the creatures, with complex consciousnesses that are capable of strong emotions.

They are keystone species, playing a crucial role in maintaining the biodiversity of the ecosystems in which they live. They are also the largest terrestrial mammal of India.

According to the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, the status of elephants can be the best indicator of the status of the forests of a country as they require food and water in huge quantity that can only be obtained from forests.
