Mountain sights in Guyana

  1. Kanuku Mountains

    In the local Macushi language, Kanuku means 'rich forest', and the Kanuku Mountains, rising out of the Rapununi savanna, are home to a very rich slice of all Guyana's wildlife species. Around 70% of the country's astonishing bird species make their roosts in Kanuku, along with jaguars and giant otters, anteaters and monkeys.
