The Indio Maiz has characteristic species and wildlife, which you will find inhabiting this exceptional forest.\n\n\n Ranging from insects to reptiles, birds, or mammals the Indio Maiz Biological Reserve is home to a wide range of differing species, including 34 different species of amphibians. 65 different species of mammals, over 200 species of birds and roughly 55 species of reptiles, a proportion of which are located on our primary forest trail.\n\n\n\n

Hurricane Otto in November 2016 did not touch significant parts of the forest. Therefore, you are still able to see giant Almendro and Cedro Macho trees.\n\n\n\nThe mountain Almendro can reach up to 60m in height and around 200cm diameter a large variety of species feed on the fruits and seeds of this tree including over 60 species of birds and insects.\n\n\n\nMany animals also gather around the small water channels inside the forest, during the dry season it becomes a useful source of food or drink.\n\n\n\n
