Animal life in Jamaica - Holidays for Zoologists

WHA YA CAL DAT TING DER?

"Hello there sweetie"

You have no doubt  read my postings about how wonderful Jamaica is and what a great company Jamaican Treasures Luxury Villas are..er..No? Yes you have.
Anyway, I´m changing tack now and I´m going to tell you what a great holiday you can have in Jamaica if you are in any way interested in Zoology. (Wha dat?) What's Zoology? it's the branch of biology that deals with the study of animal kingdom.

There are many wonderful and wierd sites to see in Jamaica, most of the time this is just the holidaymakers after a few "refreshments" but in other parts there are some weird and wonderful residents of the animal kingdom type.

Jamaican Iguana
Crocodiles
Mongoose
Coney or Jamaican Huita
More than 200 species of birds, 25 of which are endemic and
21 sub species which are found nowhere else.
Over 100 different types of butterflies including
The Swallowtail Butterfly
The Yellow-billed and the Black-billed parrot
Seaturtles ( Leatherback, Loggerhead, Green Turtle and Hawksbill) &
Manatees.
Over a dozen different kinds of frogs
25 species of Harmless Bats!

That's not counting the creepy-crawlies and the sea life. So, If you are into a little Dr Dolittle and fancy having a natter to the animals, you are spoilt for choice.
