Wetlands and lagoons
There are species linked to humidity and aquatic live in the rivers, streams and on the riverbanks. A great animal activity can be recorded in these low and humid sectors, given that most animals come down from the upper areas looking for preys and water. We can find traces of some mammals, like the grey fox and the pampas cat on the banks. We can also find herons and birds from the forests, being the chiguanco thrush one of them.
