Bountiful Bali: The Perfect Vacation for Exotic Animal Lovers

Article by William Gabriel

Indonesia is an island chain north of Australia and south of Asia. With hundreds of small islands there are millions of different species of animals living, thriving, and delighting visitors and locals alike. Bali is one of the most populated of the Indonesian islands at over 3 million regular inhabitants, but humans aren’t the only ones inhabiting the island. If you love exotic animals you’ll want to reserve a Bali villas rental for your island accommodations, take a tour into the forests and mountains, and let the wildlife of Bali enchant you.

Exotic animal lovers will absolutely delight at the overwhelming amount of animals that can be seen and enjoyed. There are millions of different species on Bali, but before you can even set out to explore the island, you need to make sure that you’ve checked into your Bali villas rental (planning your vacation should include researching Bali villas for rent). Once you’ve checked in, you can check out the different birds, marine life, mammals, and reptiles that Bali has to offer the animal lover.

For the Birds

The small island of Bali is home to over 280 species of bird. One of the most noted of these is the Bali Starling, also known as the Bali Myna. The Bali Starling was first cataloged in 1910, and since then has become critically endangered. This bird likes to hide in the trees, and usually only comes down from the tree tops to drink. The Bali Starling is almost completely white except for the black areas around its eyes, and the very tip of its fan-like tail. The Bali Starling is a beautiful exotic bird that is only found on Bali, and if you’re lucky enough, you may be able to catch a glimpse of this rare bird from the window of your Bali villas rental. Other exotic birds you’ll find on Bali include but aren’t limited to: Black Racket-Tailed Treepie, Woodswallow, Sea Eagle, White Heron, Great Egret, Dollarbird, and Java Swallow.

Plenty of Fish in the Sea

Land isn’t the only place in Bali where you’ll find incredible animals. The seas surrounding Bali are as rich with vibrant marine life as any aquarium in the world. The marine life bountifully offered by the majestic sea caressing Bali includes: Giant Sunfish, Hawksbill Turtle, Great Moray Eel, Giant Manta Ray, Reef Shark, Barracuda, and Dolphins. You can have the opportunity to experience all of these species and more if you charter a yacht, which can be part of a package along with Bali villas for rent.

Mammals a Million

The mammals the abound on Bali include: the Bali Tiger, wild boar, Indian Muntjac (deer), leopards, squirrels, and monkeys. Some of the most visible animals on Bali are the monkeys, which love to interact with visitors and often love to be fed (this isn’t encouraged). Many of the animals you will find on Bali are so comfortable with people that they will share the forest around your Bali villas rental with you.

Reptiles of Great Reputation

If the information on the birds, fish, and mammals hasn’t convinced you to reserve your Bali villas for rent then you’ll jump at the chance to visit Bali once you know that the island of Bali is home to the King Cobra, the Reticulated Python, and the Monitor Lizard.

The exotic and, in some cases, endangered wildlife on Bali makes it the perfect vacation spot for exotic animal lovers.
