Piglet Playing With Shi-tzu in Kai Bae

And playing with a cat too, just for additional novelty value.
Cute and also a bit strange as it’s something you don’t see everyday.  Unless of course you stay at Coral Resort in Kai Bae.

Koh Chang Buffalo

A rare sighting of Koh Chang’s only buffalo herd.  OK, so ‘Herd’ maybe  a too strong a word as there are only two of them.

Bird Eating Spider

It may be a bit ambitious to call this spider a ‘Bird Eating Spider’ but that’s what the locals like to call it. These yellow and black beasties are pretty common and they spin huge webs. Their bite wont kill you but will give you a nasty sting, so best to keep your distance.

Tarantula Spider on Koh Chang

Before you get too excited, this video doesn’t show much as the Tarantula refuses to come out of it’s hole. You wont find these anywhere near your beachfront resort but if you take a jungle trek you might be able to find one in it’s nest.

This is a very good underwater video including lots of close up shots of a whale shark seen by divers from the  ‘Scuba Evolution’ dive operator in February 2009.

Monkeys on White Sand Beach

I am not sure which budget bungalows this was filmed at.  Possibly Tiget Huts, behind the tailors between Cookies Hotel and Texas Steakhouse, on the inland side of the main road (obviously).

Monkeys on Bangbao Peninsula

If you take one of the snorkelling or boat trips that heads down the west coast of Koh Chang, rather than starting in Bangbao, you’ll get to see some monkeys.

Whale Shark seen in 2007

Not as clear visibility and the footage isn’t as good as in the ‘Scuba Evolution’ whale shark video from early  2009, as the divers are following behind the shark.
But the sight of a 7metre long …
