    Elephant Rajan, we have seen him many times. Its amazing to have such a creature living in our islands. What has been featured is actually, not very common. He is little shy in nature and dives as per his will. The Elephant has aged and today he has retired from doing commercial diving with travelers. Well, it again depends on his caretaker and yes the will of Rajan as well. Whenever the best of Andaman islands get featured he will for sure has his spot among the top list. #Andaman #SwimmingElephant . Today, he is no more with us, however, we will always remember him. RIP Rajan.

    You can almost see the joy on this beautiful animal's face as he is buoyantly weightless in the water. I ca only imagine what he must be thinking. Wonderful. Now take the restraint off his ankle and he will truly be free.

      Im not saying this is the reason for the restraints? But elephants have drifted off in the currents and ended up miles offshore..

      I just saw a documentary about african people who sailed to andaman island, witch now is part indian, but from many years ago when the island was closer to Africa, it is said their was elefants swimming from africa to andaman island and so did the people. n since u like elefants i allso seen a video they talked about elefants lived in syria back when the pharaos rules i think that was a little nice :)

    How is it possible in decades of swimming in the ocean, Rajan has never been attacked by sharks? Did they rather avoid him because of his enormous stature and weight of several tons? Or why? No matter how big a land animal is, sharks are the masters in the ocean.
