The Two Faces of The Savanna of Papua
As the seasons change, Wasur National Park experiences two unique weather patterns. The swamp will be inundated during the rainy season, while the lake will be dry during the dry season, causing the soil in the lake to break. This creates a totally distinct mood with the seasonal change. At the height of the summer season, October to November, wildlife such as kangaroos, deer, wild boar and a variety of birds visit the swamps and running rivers, and this is a fantastic time to observe all the creatures of Papua.
During the winter, birds from Australia will flock to this national park in search of food and a warm place to stay. One of the draws of this location, in addition to its animals and natural beauty, is its culture. One location where visitors may view yearly festivities is Dogamit Swamp. Rare birds that have come in search of food and water are there while people are watching the action.Presented are two distinct surfaces with intricacies of the natural world and diverse indigenous animal species.
