Yala National Park

Yala National Park is Sri Lanka’s most popular wildlife attraction because of the high likelihood of meeting and variety of species. It has an unrivaled diversity of bird, animal, and reptile life in the country, with notably high densities of its two keystone species, elephants and leopards. Current estimates place the leopard population at around 70, and because they are the apex predator in the park, they are less afraid than lions in places like Africa. This means that you are more likely to witness a leopard in this area than anywhere else on the planet.
