      Hi Ken, I was in Yala national park by the time before Covid, there s lots of Zeep cars which disturbed the wildlife animals: I saw a bear, many peacocks, many different kinds of birds, a big family of elephants with babies elephants, deers, mammoths, monkeys…that s it! But the nature is amazing..! I enjoyed very much your videos of Sri Lanka :)

      On the contarty, Germans have millions (figuratively) of things to be proud of their country, and if someone were to go over there and describe how beautiful the Neushwanstein castle and how amazing the black forest is, no one would care much because it's pretty common knowledge.
      In Sri Lanka, the people are left with a country destroyed and robbed by politicians, and the citizens are trying to scrape every bit of pride that can be taken even by a small guesture like a random UA-camr appreciating his time in here. This is the not-so-glamorous side of the reality 🙂

    Hi Ken 👋🏻 wow that's early 🤣 I'm sure it's the best time to visit the safari park and spotted some wild animals. The peacocks are so beautiful 👍 hopefully you do not bump into some cheetahs or lions 😅
    I've been to Featherdale Wildlife Park in Sydney , The Koala Sanctuary and also The Kangaroo Valley really awesome 👍 another one was The Night Safari in Singapore really really amazing and we get to see the animals in close shot. The tapir , wildboars would come closer to the tram and the driver had to stop the engine and everyone has to keep quiet , that was so much fun and we spotted so many animals.
    Anyway thanks Ken for taking us to the safari park today , awesome 👍🥰

    An interesting Safari tour at the Udawalawe National Park. Great sunrise view. Since l haven't been to a Safari before, guess it's wonderful to tag along. Yeah, l too understand that elephants usually roam around in herds but surprisingly the elephants there wander alone.
    Great video, Ken. Thanks as always 💪👍👏✌️😀

    Wow, I think you spotted at least 8 species of animals (including 2 types of birds) during your half day trip to the national park. Love your zoom shots. That is more than the type of animals that I spotted during my 4 days stay at the taman negara (national park) in Pahang, Malaysia previously. However my trip was very adventurous, with river cruise, canopy walk, cave exploration and jungle trekking.

But difficult to spot the big animals like tigers, elephants, did not spot any big animals during my trip, only the smaller animals like monkeys, deers and porcupine. There are national parks in every states in Malaysia, should plan a visit to one of them during your next trip.

Plenty of herds.. don’t understand why you were not taken more interior and given you more opportunity to see elephant herds… leopard spotting is rarer but you should have seen more elephants
