Khao Phra Thaeo Wildlife Conservation Centre
22 square kilometers of virgin forest conserve a number of wild animals which would otherwise be extinct in fast-growing Phuket. Wild boar grunt as they forage around giant trees supported by huge buttresses thick with creepers. Towering tall, these mighty trees are alive with the cries of gibbons, civet, macaques, squirrels, flying squirrels, bats, flying lemurs and chameleons. Nearby, the park’s Ton Sai Waterfall is a bit of a disappointment, even when in full flood during the rainy season.
There is a gibbon sanctuary nearby.
