It’s brilliant for wildlife watching

For those who want to see animals, Paraguay is an excellent choice. Bird enthusiasts should travel to Paraguay, which is home to over 1,000 distinct species of birds. It is also home to the Jaguar, America's largest feline cat. A jaguar refuge center can be found at the Jardn Zoológico. Ocelots and panthers also roam the country. Except for the eight species of the coral snake, Paraguay has hundreds more snake species, most of which are harmless.

The piranha fish is also found in Paraguay, although, contrary to what we've learned from James Bond, they pose no threat to people. Paraguay's national animal is the Pamapas Fox. The Atlantic Forest, Cerrado, Chaco, Pantanal, and Mesopotamian Grasslands are all rich in biodiversity and are home to monkeys, tapers, and parakeets.
