Cuyabeno Faunistic Reserve
|
Cuyabeno Faunistic Reserve is an elaborate system of wild lagoons, river and flooded forest found in North-Eastern Ecuador. It is over 602.000 hectares of primary rainforest and boasts an incredible variety of neotropical wildlife such as river dolphins, tapirs, capybaras, caiman, anacondas, ocelots, monkeys and the infamous piranha. The bird life is particularly impressive. It also has a strong cultural impact as the Siona, Secoya and Cofan people, indigenous inhabitants of the Amazon basin for thousands of years, inhabit the area. |
