Costa Rica Getaway - Rainforest History

Description    

The Costa Rican rainforest is home to more than half a million species. It hides invisible mysteries of life, only a part of which has been discovered by humans. Most of the creatures that the creators captured during their journey show exceptional abilities: basilisks that can run on the surface of the water, frogs that transform into leaves, sloths that live almost upside down and Atta leaf-cutter ants, whose production of antibiotics would be the envy of any giant pharmacist. Equally worthy of attention are the feathered inhabitants of the jungle, such as toucans and tanagers, and macaws, which Project Ara is working incredibly hard to rescue and use to repopulate their territory. Costa Ricans are well aware of their extraordinary natural wealth, and protect their treasure with an exceptional range of national parks and protected areas. However, the jungle can be dangerous. It is a test for anyone who wishes to explore it: the jungle will test your determination, your courage and your ability to observe, listen and blend. The reward is unexpected self-knowledge.
