Are There Elephants In Most Campgrounds

How do you play the Elephant game riddle thingie?

It's something like saying.... "Mary has eight elephants, Damen has five elephants, and I have six. How many? Someone kept saying it, making random numbers, and I couldn't get it.... And they wouldn't tell me :( They told me to look it up, but I don't know for sure what it is..... HELP ME! I WANT TO KNOW!!!

What is the "Pink Elephant" mind game?

Pay no attention to the number of elephants he says.

When he asks you "How Many Elephants" take a look at how many words he said to ask you that

So the answer would be 6 if he asked you "How Many Pink Elephants are there?" because he had to say 6 words to ask you.

sorry if i was a little confusing

just tell him the number of words he says when he asks you for how many elephants.

Could a 12 gauge magnum slug kill an elephant at close range?

it is not legal nor advised. However, a single side brain shot from a 12-gauge slug will result in one very dead elephant. An elephant's skull is thick but it is not solid bone. It is more of a honeycomb of bone.

What do you like the most about camping?

Going to remote, beautiful locations , with exotic animals and seeing places and things I’ve never before experienced. Getting to climb a high mountain ( a 14er, or maybe something bigger in other places in the world).Sleeping outdoors and breathing the clean mountain air, and smelling the pine trees ( some smell like vanilla), or flowers, or sagebrush.Seeing the most gorgeous sunrises and sunsets ever.Watching the stars at night, far from the nearest towns or lights. The night sky in the mountains, at high altitude, is covered in stars, brighter than I’ve seen them before. When we were camped at 23,000 feet on the North Col of Everest, I’d stand outside the tent as long as I could stand the cold just to look up at the sky in wonder.Our campsite in Arapiles, AustraliaThese cool birds came to check out our food bowls in ArapilesThe cockatoos ate cheese from my handOur campsite in La Mussara, Spain, in the Sierra des Prades, CatalunyaBreakfast outdoors, La MussaraCamping at Vilanova de Meia, SpainCamped at Matt, Switzerland, to climb on the BrügglerMy tent at Portrero chico, Mexico ( the beige spot)Tent, Elephant’s Perch, Sawtooths, Idahotent, Mt. of the Holy Cross, ColoradoSunset, Cactus cliff, Shelf Road, near Canon city, CO

How do I choose a safe camping site in South India?

If you are planning to camp with a group of friends, buy a camping tent and basic camping gears like sleeping bag etc off the shelf from Decathlon or Online (Should cost within 6-7k), watch youtube tutorials on how to pitch these tents and you will be good to go. However the easy bit ends there.The challenge is identifying a place to camp. Make sure you stay away from wildlife areas, reserve forests & beaches (most of the beaches are off-limits however you can talk to the locals and always figure out a place to camp)Make sure you pitch your tents away from bushes (Snakes!). And if you are camping anywhere closer to rivers / beaches etc. Pitch tents on a higher ground and as mentioned earlier talk to locals and understnd tidal conditions etc. You may have to bribe your way through things if you run on to police or rude locals.ECR Stretch in Tamilnadu, Nagalapuram, Tada, near Chennai, Kavunji, Poombarai, Poondi areas of Kodaikanal, Near Parsons valley in Ooty, Beaches near rameswaram, few places in Munnar (be weary of elephants) as far as I know are ideal. If you are looking for more peaceful options I have camped with this camping startup named Exoticamp. They have private campgrounds pretty much across the south. They take care of the tents and stuffs too. I have been to a couple of their camps (Beach Camp near Kovalam) and one in Vagamon, Kerala.You can go through my blog to get a snapshot of the experience I had.A Trip to Remember

Camping in Yosemite? im kind of worried!?

The snakes tend to stay at low elevation areas, not a major problem at Yosemite, just be careful walking in tall grass, stepping over logs (backside of log that you cannot see until you already step). Bears are a concern because many people have fed the bears in the past. The bears act aggressive at times simply because they want your food. They will try to intimidate you in the daylight hours by coming close. Don't run!!!! calmly walk to your car if they get to close for comfort. Do not turn your back on them. You really don't have to actually WORRY about anything. Just use common sense.
Remember ALL animals fear you more than you fear them. The only time to be concerned about being a meal is in the middle of the night if a bear comes into your camp and tries to get into your tent. This is the behavior of an animal that is beyond bold and will kill if given the opportunity. If this should happen (very rare), fight for your life!!
