I’m ashamed about what I’m going to say, but it is the truth to a certain extent. The point is that I love animals and sometimes I like them more than humans because they are never wicked and perfidious. But I won’t make red herrings so I’ll go straight to the point. I’m traveling to Sri Lanka in a month or so and I’d like to visit Minnerya National Park as I’m very fond of leopards. What can you tell me about this place?

Minneriya National Park is a great place for all the people who like to see the wildlife up close! This is location where ecotourism is flourishing and I think that it is great when a country has such a level of awareness as to protect its natural resources and surroundings. There are various species in this park starting from birds. When it is not a rainy season elephants can be spotted here. Since you have asked about leopards in particular I can say that you can see some of them rambling through the park in search of food, so be careful. Humans can hurt you intentionally but leopards can be dangerous when they are hungry. So, when you get there you can forget about all the things from the civilization which can spoil the nature.
