Apart from the obvious geographical variations there is a vast number of less prominent ecological systems in Sri Lanka such as forests of ritigala and rumassala, udawatte kelle in kandy etc. All these contribute to an exotic system, which is the natural habitat of a variety of animal and plant species. Contrasting eco systems means that Sri Lanka is a haven for a nature lover who want to do exploring to his/her heart's content.
An important part of ecological systems prevalent in Sri Lanka would be the animal species. Like the variety among environment one can find so many kinds of fauna who observe many a behavioral pattern. Animals in Sri Lanka could be broadly categorized in to many groups such as Birds, Mammals, Reptiles, Fish, and etc.
