The reserve covers 30,821 hectares of<br \/>\nland area and was established on 30 June 1972. The park is 165 kilometres from Colombo.

Up to three elephants per week are killed in Sri Lanka due to conflicts with humans,<br \/>\noften leaving behind orphan calves. The elephants are kept at part of the Udawalawe National Park to maintain<br \/>\nfamiliarity with their habitat, but have access to both food and medical care.All care at the facility is by trained staff,<br \/>\nand efforts are made to minimize contact between elephants and humans to keep the elephants from becoming<br \/>\nacclimated to humans. Although visitors can watch the elephants being fed, they are not allowed to touch or otherwise<br \/>\ninteract with them.
