Guiroga - Animal Refugio, AR

On the last day in AR, we visited the Guiroga Animal Refugio where injured wildlife is rehabilatated and cared for. Many animals and birds we did not see in the wild were seen here.

The setting of the Refugio in the jungle, the quality of care and dedication of the staff were very impressive.

Visiting the Refugio was a great way to end our visit to South America.
