What About Vietnam - S2-22 - Visit Danang and see monkeys in the wild at the Son Tra Nature Reserve


Listen Later

Are you heading to Danang and looking for an activity that takes you outdoors exploring nature? Do you like fresh air and lush rainforests full of endangered species like the  Red-shanked douc langurs? They are those cute monkeys with red bib necks and cute faces.
Then the Son Tra Nature Reserve won't disappoint you! 10 Mins from Danang centre.
 
Oh, btw, those monkeys have a very mischievous personality as you will soon find out.

I am always delighted to have someone on the show that can educate us on a new experience of Vietnam. Especially, if that experience helps us …..as a visitor to better understand some of the local projects focusing on biodiversity and the development of important ecosystems.

Today we are going to learn about the Son Tra Nature Reserve and Education Centre.
Please Welcome, Thanh to the program.
Thanh is one of the educators of Son Tra Nature education center, which is a division of GreenViet an NGO. 
GreenViet is the first local Organisation in Danang to focus on nature conservation. Being established in 2018, Son Tra Nature education center has been offering free admission to help people gain a better understanding of the unique treasures found in the Son Tra Nature Reserve which is located just 10 km from Da Nang city center. 

In this episode, let Thanh guide you to a visit to this most magical place to :-

  • See and count members of macaques and douc langurs family and the many other wildlife.
  • Learn about langurs’ feeding behavior through observing them in the wild, and Oh watch out for your handbag??
  • See and experience the natural habitat of Son Tra’s wild animals.
  • Learn why the primates chose to live in the Son Tra mountain.
