Also known as the Land Of The Hornbills, Sarawak is home to thriving rainforests that are estimated to be 140 million years old, inhabited by a vast range of flora and fauna like orang utan, gibbons, Bornean bearded pigs, tree frogs, the Rafflesia and of course, hornbills.
Many of these tropical forests are gazetted as either national parks or protected parks, in hopes of preserving the ecosystem. While there are a total of 42 national parks throughout Malaysia’s largest state, only 13 of them are open to the public, according to the Forest Department Sarawak.
