The Pampas
The Bolivian pampas are sprawling grassy lowlands distinctive for their abundant biodiversity. During the rainy season, from November to April, parts of the pampa can flood up to a meter, turning the grassland into a temporary wetland. These Amazonian savannahs are home to countless species of flora and fauna. With good weather and a bit of luck, you may catch a glimpse of some of the unique wildlife that defines the pampas.
The ranches of the pampas host a multitude of species, including thousands of aquatic birds like storks, ibises and spoonbills, and over 80 mammals. Capybara, squirrel monkey and the stealthy puma represents just a few resident species. The wetlands also provide an ample food source for many reptiles which hide in the tall grasses. We are always on the lookout for giant anaconda, caiman and coral snakes.
