The Pantanal is the largest tropical wetland area in the world. It’s home to lots of birds and caiman (relatives of the crocodile).
We stayed on a working ranch.
We went for a boat trip.

We pretended to be Gauchos and went for a horse ride.

We went to a sink hole where lots of colourful birds lived.

Back at the ranch they have some tame macaws who like sweets. This clever guy could unscrew the lid and help himself.
