Natural reserve Yacutinga Freeland Iguazu
The astonishing presence of several plant strata overlaying from the ground to the high tree tops; profuse vines of all types and sizes, creating an intricate and entwined frame for numerous epiphytes that hang from all that can serve as support.
The free space between the different vegetation layers is home to colorful birds like toucans, black fronted piping guans, trogons and woodpeckers.
Life in one of its richest expressions within a frame full of species, shades, dimensions and colors, makes it almost impossible to describe.
This combination of abundant biodiversity is the result of a natural chaos, and which can only be understood by someone who has seen and admired something similar and unforgettable.
The subtropical Forest impresses as a whole entity, it is admirable in its parts and its details arouse curiosity. The majestic silence that at times dominates the jungle allows our hearing to enjoy an terrific sensation and, at the same time, warns us of a coming on change of weather.
The songs of birds, the buzzing of insects and the rustle of the breeze moving the tress conspirate in disrupting this silent and oppressive calmness.
While staying at the Natural Reserve we reunite with our primitive escence to discover our senses, which have nearly been atrophied by urban life.
It is greatly important for the visitor to understand that although it is possible to observe larger animals, this is not usual. Yacutinga Wildlife Reserve offers protection to several endangered species, such as the South American Jaguar, Tapir, Ocelot and some severely threatened bird species.
