Amazon Trip in Ecuador



You can't help but meet many Amazon natives when you're traveling through the rain forest.

After arriving in Coca, Ecuador, you can travel many miles by boat and canoe to get to the Napo Wildlife Center. The Napo Wildlife Center is in the Yasunì National Park.

It's great that the Napo Wildlife Center is there as they've preserved over 52,000 acres of rain forest. Much of the rain forest has been under attack by the oil companies who want to drill for oil, thus destroying the land.

In the picture above you see some members of the Quichua indigenous community. When you stay at Napo learn about the families are educated about their daily activities.

The Napo guides also take you on a trip to the parrot lick.

I highly recommend a trip to Napo and a stay at the Napo Wildlife Center. A great description of the Napo Wildlife Center is here.

To learn about some techniques used to photograph wildlife go to this post.
