Bringing pets to Fireflies Festival can be dangerous. Know why forest regions are not pet-friendly and what risks your dog or cat may face during camping. You thinking of taking your doggo for glow-trek? Sounds cute but wait — the forest has different plans. Let’s explain why it’s a really bad idea 🐾
Please avoid bringing your pets to Fireflies Locations.
There have been past incidents where local forest dogs have attacked visiting pet dogs and brutally injured the pets. For their safety and the safety of others, pets are strictly not recommended at any firefly location or forest zone.
This is a natural "Wildlife zone" not a pet-friendly tourist location.
Fireflies Festival ain’t a resort weekend. It's in **deep forest zones**, mostly tribal and semi-wild regions. These places are ruled by local forest dogs. Wild, untrained, alpha packs. And they don't like outsiders — especially not pampered pets from cities.
💡 Note: Forest dogs survive by hunting. Your pet is seen as threat or prey. Not a buddy.
⛔ Ethical eco-camps strictly refuse pets during glow season for these reasons.
That’s good. But nature doesn’t care about training. Glowing bugs, strange animal smells, wind, sounds, it all overwhelms even calm pets. Some get anxious. Some run. Some bark non-stop.
Best to let them stay at home. Safe. Calm. Happy.
You love your pet? Prove it by not dragging them into forest madness. Fireflies Festival is not pet-suitable. Don’t risk injury or trauma. Respect their safety too.
🕗 Fireflies start glowing around 8:00 PM and remain visible till about 3:00 AM. The 2025 Fireflies Festival officially begins on May 17 and ends by June 22.
🎯 Best time to visit: Weekdays between May 24–June 15
📌 Go with eco-organisers who follow real forest rules. Not party gimmicks.
We know you love your dog. And we love that about you. But Fireflies Festival is meant for silence, night magic, and forest discipline. Leave your pet with a trusted friend, and come enjoy nature without worries. 🧡
