Sri Lanka is the best place in Asia to see and photograph Leopards. Research supported by Jetwing showed that the average density in Yala National Park is as high as one per square kilometer. The lack of other large carnivores means that the leopard is the top predator and adults and cubs are remarkably relaxed during the day, offering great opportunities for viewing and photography.
