Matang Wildlife Centre

Kubah National Park, Malaysia

It is part of Kubah National Park and is popular with families who picnic by the refreshing rock pools and waterfalls. There are full facilities including toilets and BBQs. There are four relatively easy jungle trails, but the main attraction used to be the Orang Utan Training Centre - where orphaned and rescued Orang Utans are rehabilitated and taught how to survive in the wild. But after a tourist got bitten by one of these apes they were removed. By December 2006 Matang had no more Orang-Utans, but please update if this changes. The centre also houses other animals like Crocodiles and Hornbills in large enclosures.
