Wild Sri Lanka describes the flora and fauna of a country that has one of the highest species densities in the world, including a number of endemic plants and animals. Unusually for a moderately sized island, it also has large mammals. It is one of the best places in the world for seeing and photographing Leopards, Asian Elephants, Sloth Bears, and whales and dolphins. It also has the largest annually recurring ‘Gathering’ of wild elephants anywhere in the world; a truly spectacular event.

This fully updated third edition brings together all of Sri Lanka’s top wildlife stories, many of which have come to light only in the last few years. Further chapters detail wildlife-watching opportunities for primates, birds, reptiles, turtles, butterflies and dragonflies; a description of the parks and reserves by habitat type; and a wildlife-watching calendar to help plan a trip. Throughout the book there are extracts from ‘A Naturalist’s Journal’ which in the form of a first-person commentary take readers to specific habitats in search of the animals to be found there.
