While going up the Rio Colorado we encountered a three toed sloth attempting to swim across.  We stopped and picked her up and brought her to the other side.

Costa Rica Adventure – Buying Fish

Local Fishermen in Barra del Rio Colorado, come to the Lodge to sell fish, they present, gut it, and weigh it.  They take the gills and other parts, and eat them, especially the gills which they fry.
