Thread: Hello Teakdoor! Some info on Thailand's Protected Areas

Hi,

My name is L. Bruce Kekule. I'm a friend mobs00 and he has finally got around to helping me set up this profile.

I've lived in Thailand since 1964 and have been a wildlife photographer the for the last 15 years. I have published three books on Thailand's flora and fauna in the protected areas including national parks, wildlife sanctuaries, and non-hunting areas.

My main mandate is to help educate the people on conservation awareness of their great natural resources, and the utter need to save and protect the natural heritage in the Kingdom for present and future generations.

I'm going to start posting on Teakdoor about the protected areas, their inception and history. This will also include general information on where they are, what they protect, how to get there, if they are open to the public, what time of year they are open, and current information concerning the status of wildlife and biodiversity.

Welcome, Bruce... Yeah, about time these 'savages here at TD' are shown the difference between "a wild life" and "wildlife"!

Thanks. It seems like just yesterday that I arrived in the Kingdom as a 19 year old kid working with my Dad in the wood business up in Chiang Mai. It has been a roller coaster ride and have enjoyed especially the last 15 years photographing some amazing wild creatures and habitats.
