Arrive at Iquitos port and visit CREA, an Amazonian Rescue Center run by non-profitable organizations that help wounded manatees to recover and go back to their natural habitats. These huge mammals have become endangered species because of various reasons. People used to hunt manatees since they are slow and are a great source of meat, but the main reasons why they are getting extinct are the illicit sales of the cubs and the accidents with large boats. Baby manatees cannot drink cow milk directly; it has to be denser for them to digest it.
At the rescue center, you will be able to feed the manatees with processed milk and talk to the scientists and volunteers to learn more about these noble creatures.
Afterwards, transfer to the airport to board a flight to your next destination or go back home.
