Sri Lankan Elephants: Culture, Conservation and My Bicycle Ride Through Wild Elephant Country

▶️ Listen on Spotify | ▶️ Listen on Apple Podcasts | ▶️ Listen on iHeartRadio Elephants have always held a special place in Sri Lankan culture . They are part of our history, religious traditions, working life and, of course, the wild landscape of the country.For me, however, elephants aren't animals I first encountered as a tourist. Some of my earliest memories of them come from growing up in Sri Lanka. My Childhood Experience With an Elephant I remember my grandfather having a project done at his home and hiring an elephant to help with the heavy work. In those days, elephants were sometimes used almost like heavy equipment. Their tremendous strength allowed them to pull and move things that would otherwise require machinery. But what fascinated me as a child wasn't only the elephant's strength. It was how differently this enormous animal behaved around us. I wanted to climb onto him. The eleph...

I might not even remember. That’s okay, of course—small lapses don’t always matter. But then imagine you’re in another country, with a flight booked for a specific day, a specific hour. That moment isn’t optional. That’s the kind of memory that demands discipline. Life moves fast. Each day, we juggle countless tasks and details. If you’re on your own, it’s one level of responsibility. But if you’re caring for children, you’re not just remembering your world—you’re holding theirs together too. That’s why memory matters.
