The GCW Tour, Costa Rica: Rainforest Adventures, Exotic Animal Bingo

While we didn't see much in the way of animals on the tram ride, our guide pointed out a number of interesting critters on our walk through the surrounding area. Admittedly, a few were behind glass -- they have aquariums set up with some of the frogs and snakes -- but most were just wandering around, including the terrifying in theory, but not so scary looking, Bullet ant. Here's some of what we saw...


A big yellow spider

A pretty blue butteyfly
Some kind of snake that also comes in yellow, green or orange
A blob -- or, if everyone else was right, a three-toed sloth
A stylin' flourescent camo frog (behind glass)

A male and female Golden Orb Spider
A frog of some sort

Leafcutter ants
A Bullet Ant, a Leafcutter Ant, and a Blue Morpho Butterfly (I think)

A tapir
The Poison Arrow Frog -- aka, the Blue Jeans Frog (behind glass)
