Home Birds seriemas Birds: ... Flamingo Cam Related Resources Seriema Facts Migratory Birds Animals of Amazonia and Elsewhere in South America Red-Legged Seriemas South America's tropical rainforest and its spectacular plants and animals get so much attention that it's easy to forget that there are other South American habitats that boast equally interesting species. East of the Andes and south of the Amazon, for instance, are partly open, fairly dry habitats ranging from savanna-like grasslands to arid woodlands. Long-legged maned wolves live here, as do capybara, the world's largest rodents, and giant anteaters with very long snouts. The Chaco, dry wooded lowland habitat in parts of Bolivia, Paraguay, and Argentina, is the only home of the Chacoan peccary. This large mammal, weighing between 65 and 90 pounds, was first identified by scientists in the 1970s. Two species of rheas, very large flightless birds resembling ostriches, also wander the open plains. Then there are seriemas, large predatory birds with long legs, necks, and tails. Two closely related species of seriema stalk parts of South America. The black-legged seriema (

What's New at The Zoo? Tropics of the Americas The tropical forest of the new world takes on a new life at night. The nocturnal realm is home to a enormous variety of spectacular and often times misunderstood animals, many of which are not often seen because they are hidden and camouflaged by landscape and darkness. The Mayan Observatory will allow guests to view many of these species such as bats, snakes, salamanders, scorpions, bird-eating tarantulas, geckos, frogs, and centipedes. Having explored the islands and caves, adventurers will then come upon a South American Marketplace. The wild populations of several South American animals have been harmed by the pet trade. This exhibit will display several of these animals and serve to educate zoo visitors about the danger of the pet trade. Animals on display will include green iguana, yellow footed tortoise, milk snakes, tetra, conures, angelfish, parrots, turtles and boa constrictors. palm beach zoo at dreher park - site by: floridawebdesign.net

Jan 17 '03 (Updated Jan 17 '03) Author's Product Rating Pros Diverse animal collection, spacious habitats for most inhabitants, species grouped geographically Cons Extremely hot in summer, limited shade along pathways. The Bottom Line While not one of the nation's largest zoo's, the zoo is an outstanding moderately-sized zoo with very humane enclosures for its inhabitants. Full Review In 1991 the Montgomery Zoo expanded from a tiny 8 acre facility with outdated small cages and cement slab enclosures to a superb facility with open-air naturalistic animal habitats spread over 64 acres. Instantly the zoo transitioned from a local menagerie to a respected zoological institution drawing visitors from throughout the region. Since that time new species have been aquired yearly with new and innovative enclosures opening regularly. One of the many strong points of the Montgomery Zoo is its arrangement of species by geographic divisions. Five continents are represented in the zoo's collection. The five five zoo regions are arranged around a central hub featuring a cafe with seating overlooking adjacent animal enclosures. The regions moving counterclockwise from the front entrance are South America, North America, Africa, Asia, and Australia.
