    1. Welcome to JungleDragon!

      Yala is great, I added this tag to your post:

      48Yala National Park

      Few small requests:
      - Please set the location on all your photos, it's currently missing on two of your photos
      - Please remove the underscores from your title, makes it much more readable

      Enjoy the site, let me know if you have any questions.
