Akan National Park in Japan is one of the best places to admire animals in the wild. The Kushiro Marsh is the favorite place for Japan's only crane bird population. They offer an incredible show in mid-February with their famous paw strokes under the winter sun. A little further away in the Chubu region, the Japanese macaques take the lead by appearing in the warm waters of the region's hot springs. These Japanese macaques live precisely in this habitat, sheltered from humans because these small animals are the only occupants there. A visit to Indonesia is necessary for feline lovers.

Then, in Sri Lanka, Yala National Park is a pure wonder. This reserve is more than 1000 square kilometers and is an idyllic place to contemplate leopards. A little patience is still necessary because the group of felines is small, but the wait is worth it. On the American continent, nothing beats the beautiful Katmai National Park in Alaska to experience a surprising moment watching grizzly bears. From mid-July to September, these animals choose to join the waterways of Alaska to catch fish. They usually gather several near the ponds, and the platform available to travelers in the park makes it possible to observe these creatures from afar living their lives. Further north of America, Mexico also promises beautiful discoveries and, more precisely, in Sierra Chincua. Every fall, this place is invaded by millions of monarch butterflies that travel thousands of miles to spend the winter warm in the Michoacan volcanic range. The trunks, bushes, and soils then serve as a refuge for these butterflies, thus offering a colorful spectacle during this time of year.

Thus, the Serengeti Plain in Tanzania offers a unique opportunity to admire many animal species. Every year, there are about 1.4 million wildebeests, 20,000 zebras, and gazelles on the Serengeti Plain. The latter are usually in search of rainwater and fresh herbs. Raine Island in Australia will make you shiver in the southern hemisphere with a rare spectacle. It is a tiny island of about 1 kilometer and is located in the Great Barrier Reef. Moreover, the appropriate name for this islet, composed of sand and coral, is Caye. There, it is possible to observe thousands of female green turtles that migrate yearly to this islet to lay their eggs. Raine Island is highly protected, making it a perfect shelter with the world's largest concentration of green turtles. Also, in Australia, a second island attracts the curiosity of many travelers. Indeed, Christmas Island welcomes millions of red land crabs yearly during the rainy season that leave the rainforest to breed on the shores. This migration is impressive because it allows tourists to observe a walk of crabs that can weigh up to 1 kg. ◄
