When you think of animals, Africa would probably be the first place that comes into your mind because the majority of African lands are open plains and safari parks. Tanzania in East Africa, in particular, is full of rare animals such as the African Lynx, striped hyena, colobus monkey, and East African Oryx.

Brazil

Brazil is the land of the big cats. It’s where you’ll find a lot of them roaming around the jungle areas. In this country, you’ll see tigers, panthers, and jaguars. It’s common to see a random jaguar appear in the forest areas sometime between June and November when the weather  is very dry.

You’ll find a lot of cute and quirky animals in Australia, especially in Albany. In fact, Albany is home to the rare but very cute quokka, an animal that looks like a fusion of a cat, a rat, and a kangaroo. They’re just about the same size as regular cats, but they’re extremely fearless. Even if you go near one, it won’t run away. It might even attack you! Aside from the quokka, Albany is also known for various reptile and amphibian species.

Philippines

While Philippines isn’t known for many rare and exotic species, it’s one of the few countries to house tarsiers. Tarsiers are very small primate creatures that have big heads and big eyes.

Venezuela
