John Keells Hotels hosts wild life celebrities Jonathan and Angela Scott

John Keells Hotels Group is hosting the world renowned photographers and wildlife film makers Jonathan and Angela Scott in Sri Lanka.

The Head of Wild Life Tourism for John Keells Hotels Chitral Jayatilake spent 12 days with the Scotts giving them an opportunity to experience the local culture, rich history and heritage of Sri Lanka and the Leopards of Yala.

Chitral and the Nature Trails team made 17 sightings of leopard in Yala along with Jonathan and Angela and the tremendous images captured will no doubt showcase the promise of one of Sri Lanka’s tourism icons to the world.

Jonathan and Angie Scott live in Kenya in Africa and spend much of their time in the company of African wildlife. Their wildlife photography, wildlife pencil drawings, and wildlife books have won awards and recognition for their work throughout the world. Big cats have been the focus of much of Jonathan and Angie’s work and the basis for a number of books including three titles accompanying the hugely popular BBC television series Big Cat Diary or Big Cat Week that Jonathan co-presents. Angie takes the production stills for the series and is a game spotter.

John Keells Hotels together with Nations Trust Bank and American Express have organised a special event where Jonathan Scott will make a presentation at Cinnamon Lakeside Colombo on Saturday morning and share with an audience his latest film, shot in Africa about the secret leopard.
