When one thinks of the Peruvian forest, one thinks of Tambopata National Reserve, a treasure house of life wherever you look. The Reserve protects more than 270,000 hectares, which are home to thousands of species of plants, mammals, birds, insects, amphibians and reptiles. 

 

Imagine yourself in this heaven on Earth! Clay licks filled with the colors of hundreds of macaws calling out raucously, while lizards and tarantulas become active at night, and the diversity of butterflies and poisonous frogs defies belief. And then of course there are the many other unique species which attract biologists and naturalists from all over the world. 

 

Tambopata is the magic of the Amazon rainforest in all its splendor.
