Wildlife in Peechi-Vazhani Wildlife Sanctuary

Peechi-Vazhani Wildlife Sanctuary covers the forested catchment of the Peechi and Vazhani dams east of Thrissur. Its moist deciduous and evergreen forests are home to elephants, deer, wild boar and a rich variety of birds and butterflies.

The Peechi dam on the Manali river, with its gardens below the spillway, is the easiest entry point for visitors.
