PATAGONIA ADVENTURE TRIP

 
              



Patagonia is this land ending the world in the American continent which is shared by Chile and Argentina. No having official borders, it is usually considered that the territory is localized between the 42° parallel south (Río Negro) and the Horn Cape.
The Andes constitute a natural border.
In the western Patagonia, lies the forest, 100 Km wide until the fjords of the Pacific...
...The eastern lands are constituted by a steppe until the Atlantic cost.

During your Patagonia adventure trip, you can see the guanaco, the puma, the zorro or Brazilian fox (Canis azarae), the zorrino or Mephitis patagonica (a kind of skunk), and the tuco-tuco or Ctenomys niagellanicus (a rodent) are the most characteristic mammals of the Patagonian plains. The guanaco roam in herds over the country and form with the rhea (Rhea americana, and more rarely Rhea darwinii) the chief means of subsistence for the natives, who hunt them on horseback with dogs and bolas. Bird-life is often wonderfully abundant. The carancho or carrion-hawk (Polyborus tharus) is one of the characteristic objects of a Patagonian landscape; the presence of long-tailed green parakeets (Conurus cyanolysius) as far south as the shores of the strait attracted the attention of the earlier navigators; and hummingbirds may be seen flying amidst the falling snow. Of the many kinds of water-fowl it is enough to mention the flamingo, the upland goose, and in the strait the remarkable steamer duck.
