Animals of the Amazonian Rainforest - Tibutini Biodiversity Station
So this last weekend I went to the rain forest to the Tibutini Biodiversity Station which is co-owned by USFQ and BU. I do not have time today to give a full account of the trip (which was one of the best weekend of my life) but I will give you a teaser: a list of the animals I saw. This list is far from complete as it was a long list and I can only remember so many names.
