Panama Wildlife<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Panama packs a staggering number of plant and animal species into a small geographical region. Despite being smaller than South Carolina, Panama is home to more than 10,000 varieties of plants and more than 1,500 different types of animals, including the largest population of unique bird species in Central America. You will catch glimpses of creatures in the rain forest, along unspoiled coastline waters and around the hundreds of islands along both the Caribbean and Pacific coasts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Featured photo above is the White-faced Capuchin<\/strong> native to Panama, Colombia and Ecuador. This one lives on Monkey Island in Gatun Lake. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Panama Wildlife<\/a> \u2014 <<< Video I took on my 2 weeks in Panama of various animals ( some video and stills provided by my AirBnb host, Greg Hawley )<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Panama is the land bridge between Central and South America, and its mammal population shows off its southern habitat\u2019s characteristics. Many of Panama\u2019s mammal species do not make an appearance north of the country. The jungle canopy is home to two-toed sloths, marmosets and capuchins along with howler, squirrel and spider monkeys. Geoffroy\u2019s tamarin, a black and white primate, lives only in Panama and Columbia. Giant anteaters, bush dogs and the capybara, the world\u2019s largest rodent, forage in the undergrowth along Panama\u2019s many lakes and rivers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

One animal I became intrigued by was the Agouti<\/a>,\u00a0\u00f1eque<\/em>\u00a0in Spanish. They are cat sized rodents related to guinea pigs. They do not seem to be very frightened by humans and they are all over the place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
