Step into the captivating floodplain forest, Igapó, where you'll encounter species thriving in the shelter of the rainforest, such as unique axolotls, colorful poisonous frogs, charming turtles, and the electric eel!
Are you brave enough to look a piranha in the eye?
Axolotls
Axolotls are amusing creatures known for their cute, smiling appearance. Did you know that if an axolotl loses a limb, a gill, or a piece of an internal organ, it can grow a new one in its place? Amazing, right!
Terrapins
Did you know that the first turtles lived as far back as 215 million years ago? Can you guess why female turtles are often larger than males?
Red-bellied piranhas
Piranhas are known for their razor-sharp teeth, but did you know that many piranha species actually prefer a vegetarian diet?
Electric eel
The Electric eel is one of the most dangerous animals of SEA LIFE! Did you know that an electric eel can produce an electric shock of 650 volts? Which is enough to stun even a horse!
Frogs
Have you ever seen the extremely poisonous yellow-banded poison dart frog or the golden poison frog that lives in the rainforests of South America? You can look, but it's best not to touch...
Lungfish
Did you know that when the water dries up, lungfish burrow into the mud and protect themselves with a layer of mucus? They also gulp air directly from the air.
