The last place my friends and I visited was one of the two
butterfly farms. It
cost only 5 RM ($1.40) for adults, and
visitors see a whole lot more than just the hundreds of
butterflies flittering around the
greenhouse. They were so beautiful, but they live for only four to five days. However, the highlight of our visit was not the butterflies. It came when one of the
workers showed us around the other part of the farm, where there are cages of other unusual insects and
reptiles. I stayed far away from the
poisonous snakes, but in the cages next to them the worker kept taking out crazy
creatures like
scorpions and
walking leaves (
Phyllium bioculatum). He put
them in our hands before we could even say "no thank you." The funniest part -- which you have to see in the video (below) -- was when he put the funkiest looking
frog on my friend’s arm. I just happened to have the camera rolling. Click here to see the
30-second clip of our special trip to the butterfly farm. (There is another 2-minute video below of this week’s trip.) VIDEOHere’s a 3-minute Johnny Jet Video of my trip to
Cameron Highlands. It's also on
YouTube, so it takes only a few seconds to load (though the quality is not as crisp). We also have all the
JohnnyJet Videos ever made on their servers.
