Udawalawe National Park is providing shelter to animals displaced by the construction of the Udawalawe Reservoir on the Walawe River. The Udawalawe National Park is the sixth largest animal sanctuary in Sri Lanka, covering over 30,821 hectares on the boundary of Sabaragamuwa and Uva Provinces. Established on the 30th June 1972. Preserved up to present days, this iconic animal sanctuary is a distinct habitat for Sri Lankan elephants and water birds. In other words, Udawalawe National Park is one of the best places on the island to witness elephants in large groups. Shifting cultivation was the activity that kept the land/area occupied before setting the national park, but the Sri Lankan government has decided to allocate the land for animals as a reserve forever by now.
