Some Images from Yala - August 2005

The woodaple locally known as a "divul". This fruit grows abundantly in the dry zone region of yala and is also a favourite of the elephants. The pulp of the ripe fruit has a lovely tangy taste and can be eaten plain or spiced up with some salt and chilli, and can also be creamed down and diluted with water to make an tasty juice drink.
