Thailand is paticularly rich in bird life, with over 1000 recorded species. Indigenous mammals, mostly found in Thailand's national parks or wildlife sanctuaries, include tigers, leopards, elephants, Asiatic black bears, Malayan sun bears, gaur (Indian bison), serow (an Asiatic goat/antelope), sambar deer, barking deer, mouse deer, pangolin, gibbons, macaques, tapir, dolphins, dugongs (sea cows). Monkeys can be seen everywhere in the country. Reptiles and amphibians include four sea turtle species along with numerous snake varieties, of which 6 are poisonous: the common cobra, king cobra, banded krait, Malayan viper and Russel's pit viper. Although the relatively rare king cobra can reach up to 6 metres in length, the nation's largest snake is the reticulated python, which can reach up to 10 metres in length.
