By Lorraine Caputo

Slinking through the dense underbrush, coiling around the boughs of trees, slithering through the rivers bathing roots are creatures whose eyes are watching you explore the Amazon. Some are venomous, others harmless, and yet others who would love to give you a big hug before swallowing you whole. But they all play a role in keeping the jungle healthy. To get a close-up view of these snakes, Serpentario Armero-Guayabal can help you do so safely, and teach you about their conservation.
