Being part of the elephant corridor which joins up with Kaudulla and Wasgomuwa you are sure to sight elephants, especially during the dry season June - September when the water filled in the tank attracts them. A variety of bird life could be spotted including some endemic to Sri lanka. herds of elephants up to 150. We can also see elephants on the Habarana road, leopards, fishing cats, sambar deer, the endangered rusty spotted cat, sloth bear. Cormorants, grey herons, spot-billed pelicans, painted storks, Sri Lankan hanging parrot & crimson-fronted barbet .
