Tourism Activity Slows Down in Dubare

Siddapur, May 24: The Dubare tourist destination is facing a shortage of tourists. Following the death of a tourist woman and a domesticated elephant in a clash between livestock at the Dubare livestock camp, the government has imposed restrictions on tourists from visiting the camp, and now traders are facing a problem due to the lack of tourists at the Dubare tourist destination.

In the last 5 days, the state government has decided to implement some strict rules at the Dubare livestock camp of the forest department in the wake of the death of a tourist woman due to a fight between two elephants at the Dubare elephant camp and the death of a domesticated elephant among the injured elephants in the fight.

Also, the new rule against visiting the elephant camp has led to a decrease in the number of tourists at the Dubare tourist destination. Tourists from all over the country and abroad are coming to Dubare Elephant Camp, which is famous in Kodagu district of Karnataka state. But now due to the recent incident, the government has implemented the rule. Tourists from all over the country and outside states used to watch the elephants bathing in the Cauvery River and share their happiness.

They also used to go near and bond with the elephants and take their photos with the elephants. But now the tourists who come for the tour are limited to playing in the water in the Cauvery River for some time and taking boats. But due to the restrictions imposed on the elephant camp, most of the tourists were seen visiting Dubare and returning.

Every day, three to four thousand tourists and about ten thousand tourists visit Dubare on weekends. Due to this, the business of tourists was bringing profit to the businessmen in this area. Also, the number of tourists has decreased due to the ban on going to the cattle camp even during holidays. There are also fewer people taking bath in the Cauvery River, and river boating has stopped without many tourists. The shops near the Dubare River are facing problems due to lack of business. Local traders said that the traders here, who make a living by relying on tourists, are losing their capital and are going through the day without trading.

Vanaja said,The number of tourists has decreased due to the closure of the elephant camp after the death of a woman and an elephant in a recent elephant conflict.

No elephants were seen in the Dubare Cauvery River. The elephants in the camp have been left to graze in the nearby forests and are being looked after by elephant mahouts. They are being fed at the camp in the evening. No one is being allowed to roam around. It remains to be seen what decision the government will take next and when it will allow tourists to enter the elephant camp.
