any lens can be used, but if you are dealing with a more dangerous animal, you should use a bigger/longer lens so you can get good pics while still being safe. But if you are closer, you can use a smaller lens if it is not a dangerous animal. It really doesn't matter, there's no right or wrong lens.

Which lens is best suited for wildlife photography?

A good lens for wildlife photography would be a 100-400mm lens or a similar lens in the range of F/4 or F/5.6. This lens will allow you to get good close up shots without the lens being too big or expensive.

Probably, the best lens to go with would be a 400 mm f5.6 lens for wildlife photography, because more than likely, a 300 will be too short. You should also buy a good, sturdy tripod. Make sure it's not too heavy for you to carry around.
