Manatee
Amazon Explorer
Experience the marvelous biodiversity of the
Amazon Rain Forest. Beautiful and vibrant
colors adorn the many species of birds, which
include macaws, parrots, hawks and the great
harpy eagles. The great rivers of this region
are the lifeblood of these birds and are also
home to caimans, fresh water river dolphins,
piranhas, catfish and giant paiches. Butterflies
of exquisite color, beauty and unusual size
are common here, as well as the croaks of
giant frogs. The howler monkeys also thrive
here on a rich diet of insects only found
in the Amazon. |
