Besides the falls, Iguacu National Park also features five different kinds of forest bio systems and is home to endangered species like the giant anteater and the giant otter. We saw a variety of lizards and also a colorful hummingbird during our visit to the park.

Adventerous people can try rafting on the river or rappelling down a rock cliff while admiring Iguacu Falls. These activities, of course, cost an extra fee in addition to the park's entrance fee.

During our visit to Iguacu National Park, I captured a few short video clips with my Canon S3 IS digital camera along with these several hundred pictures. I edited the video clips together into a short movie that gives you a great sense of the sights and sounds of Iguazu Falls. To "stream" or view the video, left click on the blue link below.
