Phnom Tamao Wildlife Rescue Centre

Phnom Tamao Wildlife Rescue Centre is home to a huge variety of animals, but unfortunately many species are endangered due ti illegal wildlife trade and loss of habitat. Phnom Tamao was established to provide care for sick creatures including Sambor deer, macaques, and tigers. The centre is set in 2,500 hectares of protected forest, and houses over 80 species and 1,200 animals. A visit makes for a fascinating and highly informative day – a must for anyone looking to discover the natural beauty of Cambodia. You’ll also get to watch the elephants taking their daily bath amid plenty of trumpeting and boisterous play. Phnom Tamao is located 40km south of Phnom Penh.
