Otuquis National Park and Integrated Management Natural Area

The national park extends over 1,005,950 hectares of wetlands and forests at the intersection of Bolivia, Brazil, and Paraguay borders.

The Bolivian government established Otuquis National Park in 1997 to safeguard the Pantanal ecosystem and its native wildlife species.

The indigenous Otuke people maintain their traditional way of life within the boundaries of this extensive natural reserve.

Visitors require guidance from local experts to navigate through the park's remote locations and observe wildlife such as jaguars, capybaras, and marsh deer.

During specific seasons, millions of migratory birds gather in the park's wetlands to feed on large schools of fish.
