Show Your Love by becoming a "Member" - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZ9H82gqXeXrCvQm9b5GXDg/join During my visit to Kanneliya Forest Reserve in Galle, got lucky to find this beautiful and commonly found yet Endemic Species to Sri Lanka. Otocryptis Wiegmanni, commonly called the Brown-patched Kangaroo Lizard, Sri Lankan Kangaroo Lizard or Wiegmann's Agama, is a small, ground-dwelling agamid lizard endemic to Sri Lanka. In Sinhala, they are called as පිනුම් කටුස්සා / යක් කටුස්සා / තැලි කටුස්සා / ගොමු තැලිකටුස්සා. ***This video is protected by YouTube and International Copyright Laws.

I’ve spent so much of time/money bringing this to you so that you may enjoy it. I also have a very kind and humble request to make. Should you ever visit this place, you’re kindly requested to adhere to the following in order to save our Mother Nature not only for the future generations but for the current one as well: * Avoid careless/irresponsible/money-oriented/mega tour groups or organizers. * Travel in small groups as Mother Nature can’t afford so many footprints at once. Stick to the designated trails or hardback surfaces at all times. * Minimize the use of polythene/plastic and do bring them back. Please don’t burn them in the wilderness. Even organic/bio-degradable waste is harmful to the nature and animals. Please stick to the simple rule of “if you pack it in, pack it out”. * Use reusable water bottles, plates and cups. Even paper cups/plates are harmful and take years to decompose. * Remain quiet and vigilant. Don’t disturb the tranquility of the nature. Respect wildlife and don’t disturb them in anyway. Also be considerate of other trekkers. * Please collect and bring any litter/garbage left behind by other careless travelers. * Don’t light fires unnecessarily and do try to use portable cookers instead of using firewood when camping. If you must, only use firewood on the ground and don’t cut any trees for this. * Don’t bring any plants back with you or cut any trees/branches unnecessarily.. * Don’t use soap/ shampoo when bathing in natural streams as they contaminate them and kill wildlife. * Don’t do anything that harms the Mother Nature.
