The rise of conservation-focused resorts - SilverKris
"A sprawling national park on Sri Lanka’s northwest coast noted for its mosaic of natural lagoons and wildlife, it supports significant populations of species including endangered leopards, Asian elephants, sloth bears and water buffalo; its proximity to human settlements creates ongoing man–animal conflict that local conservation and lodge-based initiatives are attempting to mitigate through rescue, education and community incentives." - Silkwinds, the inflight magazine of SilkAir
