Wildlife Watching

The rare, the mystical, the brilliant and the cuddly hide in the foliage of the Costa Rican rainforest. Many nature lovers come to Costa Rica looking for just one animal: a sloth chewing on a fistful of leaves, a capuchin monkey jumping between tree branches or a chance to see the resplendent quetzal's azure and ruby plumage. While searching, they'll encounter approximately five percent of the world's biodiversity inside in a country the size of West Virginia – .03 percent of the world's surface.
