Cockscomb Basin Jaguar Preserve

From Hopkins we had another short ride into the Cockscomb Basin Jaguar Preserve. We didn't see any jaguars, but we did see two groups of speedy little wild pigs (peccarys) and a white-nosed coati. We also heard a lot of birds calling from the tree tops and managed to identify a few obvious ones like the crested guan and the black-cowled oriole. In the meantime, we did a couple of nice little hikes to beautiful waterfall pools where we got some relief from the oppressively humid jungle heat. Cockscomb is another place that you could spend a lot of time if you were dedicated to seeing more jungle life, but we didn't bring much food with us on the 10 km dirt road detour so had to settled for just one day and night in the park.En savoir plus
