My Adventure in China part 2

In the last post, I introduced some of the plants and ecosystems that we encountered on our trip back to China. Now I will show you some of the animals we saw along the way (most were wild).


The above picture is of a peacock we saw in an amusement park. I actually felt bad for it because it was tied down to the bamboo post and couldn't fly away.


The above is a fresh water crab I found while walking in the tropical rainforest.


As you can see, the rarest sight in all of nature, the wild elephant butt. As you know, these pachyderms are very self conscious animals.(seriously, that was the best photo I could get)


First, no that isn't a fifth leg or some freaky mutation. Second, if you consider relative volume instead of absolute... nevermind. Third, elephants only let it hang out when they are about to go to the washroom (as I found out immediately after taking this picture)


One of several wild monkeys I saw in the rainforest. This one actually was climbing and jumping from branch to branch right above my head.
