Lambir Hills National Park

Lambir Hills National Park

Lambir Hills National Park is situated near Miri in Sarawak, Malaysia, on the island of Borneo. It is a small park, composed largely of mixed dipterocarp forest. A census of all trees in a 52 hectare plot found 1175 different species. The forest has many birds and small mammal species, but large mammals such as gibbon and sun bear are absent or very rare due to the size of the forest and illegal hunting.
