Close your eyes and picture a wildlife safari. What do you see? My guess is that the images dancing through your mind involve Africa\u2019s Big Five<\/a>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos and buffaloes \u2013 and not the region\u2019s lesser-known Little Five, a contingent of smaller-statured wildlife that includes rhinoceros beetles and elephant shrews.<\/p>\n

I had expectations of grandeur myself as I travelled just off the northwest coast of Malaysia and prepared to embark on the Mangrove and Eagles Safari<\/a>, an Extraordinary Experience<\/a> on offer at Four Seasons Resort Langkawi<\/a>. But I soon discovered, amid mangroves and dense geoforests, that observing wildlife on a smaller scale can be just as exhilarating as catching sight of a majestic lion stalking across the Serengeti.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
