Panama wildlife.
Tamarin
American Crocodile
Toucan
Returned recently from a wonderful trip to Panama. There’s a lot there besides a canal. The forest there is some of the least hospitable but most amazing I have ever seen. This is the only place on the Transamerican highway where the road couldn’t be built. You can drive from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego except for the impossible Darien gap in Panama. Rugged and dangerous terrain indeed. Thousands of people walk through it every day to seek a better life to the north. It’s also the corridor that connected the wildlife of North America to South America and changed the ecology of both. People, ships, animals and oceans all seem to squeeze into it’s tiny width.
Keep wandering everyone and enjoy your weekend.
