Original title: Me & My Tuk-tuk - Jakten på paradisets elefanter

During the next few months we will travel 5-6000 kilometers on Sri Lanka with our little Tuk tuk. It will be interesting to find out if it will hold all that way and if we will hold up all the way. The reason for our journey is to find out how Sri Lankans view the wild elephants of the island. Humans and elephants sometimes have problems coexisting. The elephant is a huge, powerful animal that demands a lot of space. When the elephant’s feeding grounds are turned into farmland there is no place for the animals to find food. This creates a conflict where both humans and elephants suffer. Is there a future for the elephants of Sri Lanka in this struggle for living space? That is the question we will ask as we travel around this beautiful island.
