Description
We walked through this parc several times until a friend told us, that there are sloths and monkeys living there.
We returned and indeed, there are 2 3-toed-sloths (one even had a baby) and cotton-top tamarins living in this relatively small parc! You might need some time to find them, because nobody seems to care about them. But if you find them, many locals will join you in taking pictures and selfies... ;) There are also many iguanas there.
Not sure how the animals got there and actually we felt pretty sad for them. We assume they have been pets and released there. If you have not seen them in the wild, this is a good spot to see them...

Report Check-InI saw two sloths, a couple of monkeys and a big ass iguana. One of the beer selling guys pointed a sloth out to me as I was looking up the whole time, then one of the park's caretakers showed me around for about half an hour to another sloth and some monkeys while I was sipping my cold beer that I bought from the first guy. Good fun! There should be around 7 sloths and 12 monkeys in total.
Report Check-InStill sloths and monkeys in park. Just wander around and keep looking up. Also some big iguanas in the trees.
Report Check-Inthere should still be 8 slots in the park. we have seen one of them but no monkey
