Wildlife Around You
At Sabalo Lodge, wildlife is not something you search for — it finds you. Day and night, animals move freely between the jungle and the lodge. Some stay hidden, others appear just a few steps from your cabin or tent. These videos are real moments captured by our cameras and guests. No staging, no guarantees — just the jungle as it truly is.
White-nosed coati - White-nosed coati
A white-nosed coati explores the forest floor and trees near Sabalo Lodge, showing its flexible snout and distinctive white facial markings.
The coati is a small, very active animal from the raccoon family that lives in Central and South America. It has a long, flexible snout that it uses to search for food, and it eats fruit, insects, and small animals. Females live in groups, while males are more solitary, and in the wild it helps spread seeds and control insect populations.
