EDITORS COMMENTS
Trunk-tastic Scent Detectives: Asiatic Elephants on a Sniffing Mission in Kaziranga National Park!". In this print by Sandesh Kadur, we witness the incredible olfactory powers of the majestic Asiatic elephants. As they approach a shimmering water body in the heart of Assam's Kaziranga National Park, these gentle giants raise their trunks high into the air, inhaling deeply to catch every scent that wafts their way. With their keen sense of smell finely tuned, these endangered creatures are able to detect even the faintest aroma lingering in the breeze. From miles away, they can pick up on signs of fresh vegetation or potential danger lurking nearby. Their impressive sniffing skills serve as an essential tool for survival and navigation through their Indian subcontinent habitat. As sunlight casts enchanting shadows upon them, we observe a heartwarming sight - two generations side by side. A mother elephant guides her curious baby along this aromatic adventure, teaching it how to use its senses effectively and ensuring its safety amidst threats faced by this vulnerable species. This delightful snapshot captures not only a family bond but also showcases nature's wonders at play. Let us revel in the happiness and friendship shared between these intelligent beings as they embark on yet another unforgettable journey together through one of Asia's biodiversity hotspots.
