The Quistococha Zoo
currently houses more than seventy species of animals exclusively indigenous
to the rainforest of northern Peru. Below is a breakdown of the current
inventory of the zoo. The inability to ascertain the gender of some of
these species, is often due to the condition or age of the animal.
