Wild Animals Native To Phu Kradueng

  • Deer - Travelers who climb to the top of Phu Kradueng will definitely see at least one deer. One group of deer is looked after in the camp site. This allows these deer to not be scared of humans, thus letting the other deer not be bothered by travelers. The first deer's name is Kam La (คำหล้า) which means "the last born". The second deer's name is Kam Pir (คัมภีร์) which means "religious scripture".
  • Grubs - Small insects that are called Thak (ทาก). These insects are very common to Phu Kradueng beyond the little recognition they receive. Most people don't like these insects, although they are important to Phu Kradueng's environment. There are a lot of these insects during the rainy season. They have made residence in many of the building on Phu Kradueng. There are also many near the waterfalls and in the closed forests. These grubs are similar to those found in Khao Yai National Park or Khao Luang National Park, yet are of bigger size.
  • Elephants
  • Mountain Crabs

Famous quotes containing the words wild, animals and/or native:

    The wild beasts, sparrows pecking the llamas’ grain,
    Pigeons settling on the bears’ bread, buzzards
    Tearing the meat the flies have clouded. . . .
    Randall Jarrell (1914–1965)

    Why do precisely these objects which we behold make a world? Why has man just these species of animals for his neighbors; as if nothing but a mouse could have filled this crevice?
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    When we see a soul whose acts are all regal, graceful, and pleasant as roses, we must thank God that such things can be and are, and not turn sourly on the angel, and say, “Crump is a better man with his grunting resistance to all his native devils.”
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
