MAMMALS:
- Not so many mammals are observed this area, but Howler
Monkeys are relatively easy to see.
OTHERS:
- The coast of Tamarind is one of the famous nesting place
of turtle (especially huge Leatherback). There are some organized
tour for them from Tamarind, but it depends on the season. Maybe,
late December is good season to observe Leatherback, because
I saw some leatherbacks and a lot of their babies just hatched
in this season. But taking photo is prohibited.
