Your Web Guide To Malaysia's Wildlife and Nature
What's Your Favorite Impression of Malaysia's Wildlife and Nature?
Is it the unique birds and animals?
Or the colorful insects and bugs?
Perhaps the enthralling plants and flowers, lush-green rainforests, or just the tranquil terrain and landscapes?
Well, with untouched 130 million-years-old tropical rain-forests still covering much of the country, and miles of sea coasts, this website will endeavor to show the rich diversity, spectacular beauty and secret wonders of God's creations -- wildlife and nature -- in Malaysia.
This website is not in anyway intended to be a wikipedia, or an in-depth scientific or academic source or encyclopedia. Rather it is a brief and short narrative appreciation and photographic journey depicting some of the interesting facets of Malaysia's wildlife and nature. It is a rough guide, taking you on special tours for some leisurely glimpse and insights on the common and not so common species of animal and plant kingdoms, and the nature heritage that are found in the country. Your journey will cover, among others:-
- Malaysia's Rainforests, Flora and Fauna
- Malaysia's Rivers, Beaches, Lakes and Waterfalls
- Malaysia's Caves and Mountains
- And the interesting places in Malaysia for adventure escapes and eco-tourism visits.
Call For Care in Development
This website is also dedicated, directly and indirectly :-
* to making a call for the preservation and conservation of our natural resources and wildlife.
* to ask that proper care and planning be taken in any development so as to protect and safeguard our slowly vanishing nature and wildlife heritage.
Why? Because whenever the existing biodiversity systems are upset and ruined, there will eventually be adversed repercussions affecting us and our future generations.
Through this website, we therefore hope to foster and generate greater interest, understanding and appreciation of nature's uniqueness and beauty. And to help inform and disseminate nature's inextricably valuable contributions to mankind's own continued longevity.
And through it all, we hope that our sons and daughters and the future generations will still be able to see, behold and treasure during their own lifetime the wonders and beauty of God's unique creations.
Help Preserve The Environment
We hope, dear visitors, that you too will support and contribute in your own way to help preserve the delicate balance of nature wherever you are.
Spread the message of conservation, whenever you can.
Do add your voices to calls for the care and preservation of the environment.
But most of all, be kind to nature. Appreciate and care for them. Live and let live.
Hopefully, the beauty, diversity and riches of Malaysia's wildlife and nature will inspire us all to care more for our environment.
Enjoy this website.
