📍Canaima National Park, Venezuela 🇻🇪

Animals of Canaima National Park ❤️

Aside from the nature, the most impressive aspect of Venezuela is its animals. I had no idea we would have such close encounters with them every day, and many turned out to be quite tame. For some, I didn't even know they existed.

I saw tapirs, toucans, and long-nosed raccoons in person for the first time. They all live freely around our lodge and love to socialize with the staff as well as the tourists. Of course, some are much more friendly with the staff than with us, but if we had stayed a few more days...

Each animal has a name it responds to. The baby tapir (yes, this is a baby; adult tapirs can weigh up to 500 kg) is called Mother, and the three long-nosed raccoons are Vachi, Vachita, and Nacho. They, along with the monkeys, are the most mischievous. The mother tapir enjoys eating breakfast leftovers; you might find her in the kitchen by the trash bin. The raccoons go for bread and sugar packets.
