Trechemys emoli.
Nicaragua slider.
Tortuga resbaladora.

Large aquatic turtle, webbed feet. Carapace marked with orange or red circles with dark centers. You can find it alone or several of them on mats of emerging aquatic vegetation, logs, rocks and sandbars. Built for aquatic life these turtles are agile swimmers. When there are juvenile they are carnivorous eating insects and shrimps and cramps, adults will mainly be herbivores.

This is a huge river turtle that sometimes we have the opportunity of observing during the canoe or kayak tours, it tends to be very shy and jumping as soon as you get close to it, this one was an exception that didn't even flinch with our presence!

Chelonia mydas.
Tortuga verde marina.
Green sea turtle.

The magnificent green sea turtle! Such a wonderful creature, resilient, gotta go through everything and anything just to be here! Second largest sea turtle in the world! Up to 200kg, 1 meter to 120 centimers (could grow bigger) real Tortuguereñas and the soul purpose for the creation of the national park of Tortuguero.

For it to be here and start laying eggs needs to be at least 25 years old, it's believed that 1 out of 1000 eggs will make it, enduring and scaping all types of threats from vultures, crabs, raccoons, seagulls even ants!

Right now it's the nesting season that could go from June to October, in Tortuguero we are doing tours every night to try to observe this wonderful animal!

Did you know that you need a guide with a license given by the national park to perform this activity? It's the most strict tour we have in Tortuguero and I, thankfully, have it!

The most famous frog in Costa Rica, at least one that a lot of people would like to observe! The red-eyed leaf frog! Agalychnis callidryas! Used to be in the family Hylidae now currently in the Phyllomedusidae! With 7 in Costa Rica divided in two genus (Agalychnis and Cruziohyla)
Nocturnal and arboreal frog, during the day it sleeps on the underside of a broad leaf, with limbs folded tightly against its sides to mask the outline of the body and to prevent dehydration, it prefers humid places, it's found close to water pools. It can be pretty hard to spot because of its green color and it camouflages very well, I prefer to spot them by sight and not from their calls when the males are calling the females because I can't find them like this Lol, the females are usually larger than the males and they do axillary amplexus when mating, females usually choose the largest males wich are the ones producing the loudest calls. Their clutches of eggs could go from 20-50 eggs on leaf close to water pools. Did you know that on the pacific side of costa rica they have darker colors being the ones on the Caribbean side more colorful? Their bright red eyes are thought to be an aposematic color to distract posible predators to think they might be poisonous or dangerous!

A little collection of the green vine snake! Oxybelis fulgidus! Belongs to the family Colubridae(colubrid snakes) around 700 sp thought to be in the world and In Costa we have 42 species!

I've taken these pictures during some night walks! This species is diurnal but I have seen it more during the night when they are resting on the bushes or really high up in the trees! Very distinctive pointy head and the yellowish dorsal line, also it has a bright green color(cryptic color that allows it to be more camouflaged) compared to some leptophis sp known as" fake parrot snake " that have A darker green and rounded snout. We have 3 sp in the genus Oxybelis, all of them we can find in Tortuguero, this particular one likes eating birds or rodents, it's arboreal so it likes moving through the trees and bushes, its color makes it really hard to spot, it could measure up to 2 meter 20 centimeters! It is oviparous and up to 14 eggs have been reported in a clutch.

One of my favorite ones to see, they are very chill usually, but never get to comfortable, always remember to respect these type of animals when you see them!

A little few pictures I've taken recently! The beauty never stops! And I need to. Complete the Pokémon pokedex! 😂💯
