Sloth Bear, watching.... A wonderful wildlife experience, in the reserve, much to see and hear. The sound of the forest was amazing. Fortunate enough to spot this one Sloth Bear before he shot off.

The Sloth bear

The sloth bear is a nocturnal insectivorous species of bears found wild within the Indian Subcontinent. The sloth bear evolved from ancestral brown bears during the Pleistocene and shares features found in insect-eating mammals through convergent evolution. The population isolated in Sri Lanka is considered as a subspecies.
