I never expected to see this adorable creature in South Africa—I thought I’d only encounter it in Madagascar on my next visit. But what a lucky sight! This tiny chameleon was crossing the road so slowly that everyone had to wait for it to make its way before we could continue our journey. define top 5 sight of 2025
not really like snake as it is dagerous while I am not understand them … most of the shot either i know them is non venomous or with experience nature guide.

my long plan East Malaysia wildlifes, macro etc trip to Bako/Kubah National Park locate at Kuching, Sarawak .
thanks Andy Paul, Maureen, Andy Teo, Michael Wong, Simon Rex, CM Chong, Nizam (thanks for the local arrangement) etc to make this fanstatic trip for me …
Bako National Park, from Kuching airport can take taxi, bus to Kampung Bako Jetty (about 30 minutes) and a boat ride (can arrange near jetty and the rate is fix ~RM90 return)..
within the National Park, you are near to a beach with beautiful Sunset direction (will share some pictures later) .. most of the track need bit walk, night walk is a must to see wild lifes, insect etc … but take extra note as saw many pit viper (saw ~4-5 Wagler’s pit viper for 3 days)… will slow update with pictures

Juvenile Peninsula Pit Viper … it hiding from us well where we stand few feet away but yet to spot it till another group of tourist shoot it real close … only we found out this beautiful snake where we shouldn’t get close …
especially Juvenile , some expert believe they are at stage where do not know how to control the venomous.. when they hit you mean they will release 100% of the venomous which will be more dangerous than the adult …
