Journey Into Amazonia

Journey Into Amazonia features the swollen rivers, flooded forests and dense canopy of the vast rain forest recognized as one of the Earths natural wonders. The rivers rich, roiling waters sustain a vast cast of characters, including giant seven-foot-long otters, fruit-harvesting fish, freshwater dolphins and manatee. While on land, stealthy jaguars prowl, acrobatic monkeys defy gravity and keen-eyed harpy eagles soar.
