Beast master, eco evangelist, green fingers ... take your pick. Chuan Ah Kau can be recognised for any one of these environmentally-friendly roles. The 73-year-old PJ-ite is also a photographer with a keen eye for wildlife. And contrary to popular belief, a trip to the Belum-Temengor isn’t even necessary.
Why, he finds his wildlife so close to an urban hub like Petaling Jaya, scouring the Taman Rimba Kiara for a variety of animals. On his Facebook page is a dramatic image of a black cobra and monitor lizard (on opposite banks of a drain) about to face-off.
