AMAZING WILDLIFE OF BOLIVIA
( PART 1 )
Bolivia is a wildlife watchers paradise. This landlocked country has Amazon Rainforest, Chaco Dry forests, Pantanal Wetlands as well as pristine Yunga Cloud forests.
SEE BELOW SOME OF THE WILD AND BEAUTIFUL ANIMAL SPECIES IN THIS AMAZING COUNTRY
Harpy Eagle
The majestic and rarely seen Harpy Eagle is found in pristine Amazon Rainforests, it has talons the same size as a Grizzly bear and is a prolific sloth and monkey eater. Sadly each year it becomes rarer as land is coverted to soya and ranch land.
JAGUAR
The largest feline of Latin America, this stocky big cat is the king of the Amazon Rainforest , Dry forest of the Chaco and Wetlands of the Pantanal. Its prey includes Capybara, Caimans and sadly cows which are the main reason for this big cats rapid decline.
TAPIR
One of our very favorite animals in Bolivia. This gentle giant is the largest land mammal in South America and is extremely important as its a seed dispercer. Like the Jagaur , its rapidly declining due to overhunting and loss of habitat.
ANACONDA
The Anconda is the stuff of legends, and is feared by every local who shares its habitat. In reality the Anaconda is not the killing machine that movies potray and actually does everything it can to avoid people.
This is just a sample of the amazing wildlife Bolivia has to offer. For the best wildlife tours in Bolivia contact Nicks Adventures Bolivia. WWW.NICKSADVENTURESBOLIVIA.COM
