Amazon Fauna: Amazonas Colombia
The Amazon is a magical place, considered the largest tropical forest in the world, home to fascinating species of flora and fauna. We’ll tell you about some animals you’ll only be able to meet if you venture out to explore the lungs of the world.
Amazon Fauna: Sloth Bear
It is an animal that lives in tropical rainforests, feeds on plants and lives hanging from tree branches. The sloth only descends from the branches once a week to relieve itself, and since it moves little, fungi and algae often grow on it, which become its food. This adorable animal measures between 41 and 71 cm and lives around 10 to 20 years.
Amazon Fauna: Marmoset Monkey
It is a small animal measuring approximately 40 cm, characterized by its abundant, silky, golden-colored fur. The marmoset is native to the Atlantic coast of Brazil and feeds on fruits, flowers, amphibians, birds, and even some small reptiles.
Amazon Fauna: Spider Monkey
Its name comes from its long limbs; it is friendly, diurnal, and sleeps on tree branches. This animal makes several sounds similar to the barking of a dog, the scream of a human, and even the neighing of a horse.
Amazonian Fauna: Scarlet Macaw
This bird stands out for its intensely colored plumage and measures approximately 80 to 100 cm. The Scarlet Macaw is always accompanied by another bird, whether of its species or not (for this reason it is recommended not to keep it as a pet) and its diet is based on nuts, seeds, fruits and some plants such as: copaifera, jacaranda and sampium.
