Photos released over the weekend by The Department of National Park, Wildlife and Plant Conservation (DNP) provide a rarely-seen glimpse into life deep in a Thai national park.

 

The images, captured by camera traps in the jungle of Phetchabun province’s Nam Nao National Park, were shared on the DNP’s Facebook page.

 

The camera traps that caught the images were placed near salt licks. These areas are frequented by all kinds of creatures that stop by to lick the salt formation to get the sodium that allows them to stay hydrated in Thailand’s hot climate.

They have flashes on their wildlife cameras? They must have a great collection of pictures of endangered animals having a stroke.

They should install salt licks at some of the Go-Go's on Walking Street as well as the bars on Soi 6.

Rare? Are you joking the only thing rare in the photo is that the person taking it has no idea about animals. Using a flash is a definite no no

The light is usually infra-red and cannot be seen.  Same as lights used on security cameras.
