Bradt Travel Guide Pantanal Wildlife: A Visitor's Guide to Brazil's Great Wetland

The Pantanal of Brazil, Bolivia and Paraguay is South America’s Serengeti: its wetlands are the largest on Earth (they’re half the size of France) and, in the dry season, crocodiles and storks jostle to gobble the last of the dying fish. Here, the continent’s largest cat, the jaguar, lives alongside giant otters, anacondas and the world’s largest parrot. A comprehensive introduction to the best place to watch wildlife in South America, and beautifully illustrated throughout, Bradt’s Wildlife of the Pantanal is the only portable book to cover all the main wildlife groups while focusing exclusively on the Pantanal.
