COOL THINGS IN JAPAN YOU MUST SEE

If you’re an animal lover or interested in animal conservation, then planning a trip to see wildlife should be on your travel bucket list.

We asked some fellow travel bloggers for the best places to see wildlife in Asia and Australia, particularly Australia’s wildlife sanctuaries, and they did not disappoint.

We were lucky enough to see 110 on our visit (yes, we counted!). Many elephants came right up to the jeep, and it was incredible to see so many in one spot, including loads of gorgeous calves.

Kaudulla National Park, Sri Lanka

The monkeys tend to mostly congregate in the area of the old temple ruins called Phra Prang Sam Yot. As you approach the area, the more monkeys you see hanging out on the roads and walls.

The experience itself was excellent as it is not easy to spot a tiger and a lot of times people spend days and return unsuccessful. After quite a while, we got to see the tiger passing a small pond in front of our eyes.

Bardia National Park – Nepal

Komodo Island in Indonesia is very well known because of the dragons of Komodo that can only be found here. But what most people don’t know is that the underwater region near this island is also spectacular.

With numerous directives from our guides, we heard the the huge lions known as Ginger and Mauli approach us from their protected area. Their gracious presence terrified us. But slowly they became a part of our troop, walking, rushing into the fields, and climbing the rocks.

The turtles we saw were Hawksbill and Green turtle, though there are three more species of turtles out of the seven in Maldives. Generally, Green Turtles are larger and the patterns on the body are less prominent.
