Mulu National Park, Sarawak - Lang Cave

Adjacent to the Deer Cave is the Lang Cave. Lang Cave however is a much much smaller cave compared to Deer Cave.

Though it is small, it is nevertheless compensated by the the extensive and peculiar formations of stalactites and stalagmites. They are truly amazing to behold.
This cave also contains worm traps made by the cave worms to catch small insects. These thread-liked strains suspended from the cave ceiling are made of sticky substance much like the spiderwebs. Unlike the glowworms we saw in Waitomo Glowworm Caves in NZ (Read here), they do not emit light.
