During a motorized canoe trip down the Rio Frio through the Cano Negro Reserve we saw lots of different types of mammals such as this White-faced Capuchin Monkey eating palm fruits. Also saw Long-nosed Bats, Black Howler Monkeys (including one set of playful twins), both Two and Three-toed Sloth, River Turtles, Green Iguana and Emerald Basilisk (Google this lizard because it is absolutely crazy looking.) Soggy wet sloths have to be some of the saddest looking critters on this planet. We saw several sloth climbing in trees while we travelled down river to within a few miles of the border with Nicaragua.
