PICTURES OF THE SRI LANKA SLOTH BEAR .....

Although I started my wildlife journeys in 1992 by going to Wasgamuwa national park when my daughter was only 10 months old, surprisingly I didn't get a chance to see a Bear  till 2011 and that also was a glimpse in the dark  in Wilpattu.
After  patronizing both Yala and Wilpattu national parks for almost 40 times since 2000 till 2024, It was only in 2014 that I was able to photograph the Sri Lanka Sloth Bear for the first time in Yala and only in 2019 in Wilpattu but since then I was pretty much lucky many times.
