Caimans are predators and a with alligators and crocodiles, largely ceat fish, although insects, birds, small mammals and reptiles are also part of their diet. Caimans have few natural predators within their environment.As part of the Amazon rainforest, Cristalino Rainforest Reserve is an extremely important area for its biodiversity, and exceptional number of species, making it one of the richest places to observe birds, mammals, butterflies and orchids in primary forest. The Amazon itself is home to more plant and animal species than any other terrestrial ecosystem, containing approx. 30% of the world’s species. Its biodiversity is astounding, with a single bush may contain more species of ants than the entire UK, with a single hectare of forest containing more than 480 tree species. The rainforest reserve covers 12,000 hectares, on the southern edge of the Amazon Basin. Cristalino River is connected to other protected areas, thereby forming a huge conservation corridor in the Southern Amazon.
