This isn't just a travel vlog, it's a voyage into the heart of one of the world's most biodiverse places.
We're chasing a childhood dream, to meet one of the rarest elephants in the world, the Borneo Pygmy Elephant, with less than 1500 left on our planet.
We navigate unchartered terrains, encounter exotic wildlife, and experience heart-stopping moments that will leave you on the edge of your seats.
This 4-day expedition, guided by the amazing team at Borneo Eco Tours, will take us to the heart of the Dermakot Forest Reserve, a treasure trove of biodiversity.
We're not just here for the thrill of the chase. This journey is a race against time, to see these majestic creatures in the wild, to create unforgettable memories as a family, and to share this unique experience with all of you before time runs out for these magnificent elephants.

Malaysia is a lucky country. A God blessed country. She has everything.
It really does, Thanks so much for watching!

@@zaki-pq1psbut we hv Zoo....so there is kangaroo there is panda...we also hv snow but the fake one😂😂😂😂 but we still happy...😂😂😂😂😂....u looserr
@@zaki-pq1psit does snow at low's peak
Your boys are learning first hand from Mother Earth herself! No classroom in the world can do this.
You guys are so lucky to see the rare animals. The elephant family is also 4 of them, just like you 😍
That’s how animals should be seen. In their natural habitat and not in a zoo. What a cool experience
Totally agree, was magical for sure
Actually Sabah is the World of Wonder and Malaysia Is The Wonderful World. ❤
Great analogy!
The scene just like jurassic park
haha except swap mj for a dinosaur
Malaysia is a country truly Asia where you can find good food from different cultures, different races and to see some animals which are very rare. This experience you can’t get anywhere else in the world. Thumbs Up. 👍🏻👏🏻
So True, Thanks so much for watching!
You guys are blessed... its rare to even see 1, but a whole herd?
It;s an honor to be sharing yr adventure - beautiful family experience.
Malaysia blessed your family with the best from nature.
Thanks so much for watching. We Appreciate the comment and hope you subscribe :D
Great job on the video! Really top notch editing! As a West Malaysian, I have not experience what you all have and its just so splendid to see what Malaysia has so much in store! Such beautiful flora and fauna! Keep it up and hopefully we get to see more vlogs in Malaysia again! Love the commentary and documentary B-Roll stuff. Jimmy is giving Richard Attenborough vibes! 😅
appreciate the kind words. just trying to live our best life. thanks for watching
Animals living in Malaysia are like living in the Garden of Eden in paradise.
can't wait until my family can move to malaysia
it's such a. beautiful country
@@themothfamily is the new mm2h coming soon? , trying to get squared away for the new (hopefully more obtainable) mm2h
Wow! You guys are so lucky! It's not easy to spot pygmy elephants. I guess you guys are a few of the lucky ones who managed to catch a sight of these rare species of elephants. ❤
Yes we are, that's why we wanted to share it with you all just in case you don't get the opportunity to see them
@@themothfamily same also for east-west hway in peninsular Malaysia.. its something we try to avoid but the 'lucky' person may had opportunities to saw them. Even lucky when the whole family of them just lay down on the hway during night time. So better for the both ways just U-turn instead of wait for them move away..😅😅
@@askarsepoi HAHA
That animal sooo rare
I think what you"re doing with your boys is amazing, a big kudos to both of you! Alfred Russell Wallace, was an evolutionary biologist whose theory predates Darwins', conducted his research in Sabah and throughout Borneo. A good thing to know when studying evolution. Super video!
great comment, thanks for watching
Wow you guys encountered the wild pigmy elephants, that was cool👍 also that leopard cat was cool too. Enjoyed watching you guys exploring the wild n beautiful nature of Sabah, the gem of Malaysia 🇲🇾
Thanks so much for tuning in, It was a wonderful experience for sure!!
Malaysia is where your need and every point of your womderful life meet and well mix into good life experience.. we dont need perfect thing in this life but what matter most is a balance ecosystem in our life..
I'm not sure wheather to laugh or be sad with the MJ's silhouette 😂 regardless its a great addition to to signage perhaps to lighten up the warning 😅😂
From what i learnt, they put it on there as a representation of spirits, like ghosts
Must visit in Sandakan & Semporna~

Watch this space :)
Such an entertaining and fun video! I felt the genuine awe you guys felt seeing the elephants. Definitely one for the books! I'm sure the kids will def remember this experience. Didn't feel half an hour pass by watching this. Great job to the editor and the team behind these amazing videos!
PS: Ngl, michael jackson's random cameos had me rofl 😂
oWow, appreciate the kind words. Core memory for sure
haha i wondered if anyone would notice the king of pop
Borneo is the best place for nature lover. 😍
It really is!
Great video, guys... You deserve many more subscribers. Keep up the great work 🫡
Thanks so much for the kind words, Appreciate you tuning in!
One of the best healing place to visit !
It was amazing what a week without internet did for us
i wanna go now!
Gday mate! World schooling, wow! The kids just learn how to read and write at school anyway. The real learning is out there!
Totally agree!
Good job guys, myself also haven’t seen a Pygmy elephants. Thanks for bringing me along. It’s just a rarest encounter.
so glad you enjoyed it!
Your children are a lucky lot to have parents like you. This beutiful experiance will be cherished by them for the lifetime.
Keep on exploring & thanks for visiting.
Next, I suggest you go to Royal Belum Rainforest, the 2nd oldest in the world, where if lucky you will spot rare animals that only exist in the rainforest
Thanks for the advice!
Well done. Unfortunately the last sumatran rhino in captivity died in sabah not long ago.
I heard that :(, thats part of the reason we did it, These elphants may not exist when Liam and Riley are older :(
@@themothfamilyi hope not!
SO GLAD FOR U4, WHAT AN EXPERIENCE INDEED!!! I HAD MINE ONCE WHEN I WAS DRIVING THRU THE EAST WEST HIGHWAY, FROM KELANTAN TO PENANG, RIGHT ON THE HIGHWAY WHERE A FEW ELEPHANTS HUNG OUT, WHAT A TREAT! MORE THAN ANYTHING, I'M JUST SO PROUD OF U2 FOR INVESTING IN EACH OTHER THRU SUCH TRIPS AND THE WORLD OF WEALTH CAN NEVER COMPENSATE IT!
U know that elephant could hear u from a far. I make a wish once on my way back to terengganu from perak state(peninsula mlaysia) i want to see elephant and lo n behold around 7am in the morning the biggest elephant i ever seen appeer on the road blocking us all.. cars n lorry.. bless also they were calm too. They were not pygmi but maybe close related to the thailand species
Such an incredible n amazing adventure trip deep into the jungle of Borneo Sabah..this will be your memorable n unforgetable trip to Sabah my home state of East Malaysia..Do come back again to hv more exploration n to share the world how amazing n beautiful is Sabah commonly known as the land below the wind..we will always welcome your presence here..cheers
We love SABAH, Thanks so much for watching
I love the shirt guys...
That moment you guys saw those elephant was awesome! Greeting from kota belud sabah
Thanks for watching!!
OMG... THIS IS AMAZING TRIP 💖💚🥰
Thanks so much for the kind words, Appreciate you tuning in!
Awesome pygmies! Awesome video! Awesome adventures! 👍
Thanks so much for the kind words, Appreciate you tuning in!
@@themothfamily no worries mate! Continue to enjoy your jjcm ( _jalan jalan cari makan_ ) there all around malaysia while discovering loads more what this earth has and at the same time discovering your own selves too - in malaysia _jalan jalan cari makan_ would be somewhat akin to australia's walkabout, except that mostly it's right smack in the city or at least in some small towns, and not in any desert setting 😬 And, the primary objective apart from rediscovering/bonding with family members or friends, is also to discover/return to some (usually) delicious food, malaysians' pastime! 😂😂😂😂
@@jonmath4182 Thats some fantastic advice!
@@themothfamily no it was not! 😤
Anyway I myself have just several hours ago, drove back from jjma ( _jalan jalan makan angin_ ) which translates directly into: walk walk eat air. Actual meaning is going for a trip, holidaying. Had a fantastic time negotiating the meandering roads, at 50 mph (80 km/h) at most, cutting through peak district just outside of sheffield, taking in the breathtaking view of the green rolling hills dotted with white wooly balls as sheeps casually continue to graze while finding sure footings on the slippery slopes high above the ravine - it was drizzling. Amazing sight! Amazing road trip!✨💖 Hope you guys have an amazing trip yourselves 👍
Great fantastic video. I really love it. Thank you for sharing it. The leapard cat! At first I thought it was just a toy or statue when it stood still.
It was a special moment for sure. Thanks for watching
Great. Hope you can vedio around in Sarawak just next to Sabah both in Borneo. More adventures and excitements.
We got a few videos coming from sarawak!
Many foreign tourist forgot about sabah, sarawak which is located in north borneo island. The most mainstream travelog they often got sharing on us just about Kuala Lumpur.. thats quite mainstream. Credit for Mitch on sharing bout our whole picture of malaysia.. about Penang, Sabah,.. we need more review about another place in malaysia rather than kuala lumpur itself.. u need to go to Northern part of malaysia to catch a beautiful sightseeing of green paddy field🎉 it will make it for both of u.. nice and good work🎉
so lovely place and great experience ..hope ill be there someday..thanks for sharing the amazing shots ..good dayyy aussie ..😘
Thanks so much for watching!
Happy holidays in Malaysia, I love seeing your harmonious and compact family, have a nice day ❤❤❤
Thanks for watching!
Omg how cute are those pygmy elephants!

I hate leeches. I got goosebumps when you say the leeches immediately drop down to the ground after it smells you. 😫😩
Anyway, you guys very lucky to spot the pygmy elephants. I myself live here in borneo never seen 1 😂😂😂
Haha, i know right! Thanks so much for watching!
I MET THEM!!! Also AMAZING VIDEO!❤
Oh nice!!!
Such a great adventure. Definately checking out the jungle trip. Your kids must have a blast. Totally different vibe with the orang utan sanctuary.
Oh yeah, core memory unlocked for sure
The only elephant live in the jungle, what a rare species!
Was a magical moment for sure

No wonder the late Steve Irwin crocodile hunter were fun to watch. You Australian have genuine love for animal. Even your wife love it. I don't think most of Malaysian especially the woman wouldnt like to play with leeches like your wife and the boys. I salute Australian for this. Btw nice video. You and your family make it fun to watch.

MJ is from Sabah...😅
The same kind of elephants can be found in the west malaysia east-west highland forest (hutan sepanjang lebuhraya timur-barat).
Oh thats good to know
They are not the same. Pygmy elephants are only found in Borneo. It's the sub-species of Asian Elephants that are found in Peninsular Malaysia.
Pygmy elephant are only found in Borneo lah...
❤ Malaysia 🇲🇾❤️
We Love Malaysia
did u guys go see the orang utan? I'm sabahan.. welcome to my hometown
We did actually, but he was super high up so was hard to see.
@@themothfamily unfortunately.. I'm sorry about this. It was in Sepilok, right?
we actually went to dermakot in this adventure, keep an eye out for the next video in. few weeks where we go to sepilok
@@themothfamily ya.. it's in sepilok where you can really watch and feed the orangutan.
Awesome

Appreciate the love!
Correct me if im wrong...the MJ sign is a signage warn Of Ghost flying there...i think so..😂
haha you are correct!
@@themothfamily hahahha yeahh...😂
Poring sabah negeri ku
Poring was beautiful!
Jika ada masalah pendengaran,penglihatan,pernafasan hutan adalah ubat untuk manusia.
