Our guide was very nice and tried to show us all the animals. The park is not very big and there are not many visitors there. That's why it's very, very nice and quiet and you can see the animals well. There are many different colorful birds. We saw 3 sloths, a jesus christ lizard, different types of frogs. Conclusion: beautiful, small, quiet park with many species of animals.
