Removed from Unnamed collection

The journey at The Dallas World Aquarium kicks off at the top of the rainforest exhibit, a lush paradise where you can spot exotic birds like Cocks-of-the-rock and a variety of toucans. Lounging lazily amidst the foliage are both Two-toed and Three-toed sloths. It's not just a visual treat but a haven for endangered species too: Orinoco crocodiles, Giant river otters, Antillean manatees, and several species of monkeys thrive here as part of vital conservation projects. If marine life is more your scene, the aquarium showcases intriguing creatures such as Japanese crabs, jellyfish, and the mesmerizing Leafy, Weedy, and Ribbon seadragons.

Outside, the South Africa exhibit offers a delightful view of Black-footed and Blue penguins gliding through the water. The Mundo Maya cenote is a stunning underwater world inhabited by sharks, rays, and sawfish. Among the vibrant birdlife, euphonias, tanagers, and hummingbirds flit about, safely away from Neotropical eagles. As you wander, you'll also find reptiles and amphibians, important to Maya culture, scattered throughout the exhibit.

For those interested in diving deeper into Maya history, the exhibit offers fascinating insights into how these creatures played a role in ancient traditions. It's a place where every corner holds a new discovery, perfect for curious minds and budding explorers.
