La Democracia, Belize
The Belize Zoo and Tropical Education Center
The Belize Zoo and Tropical Education Center, on Mile 29 of the George Price Highway outside La Democracia, operates as one of Central America's most consequential wildlife facilities. It houses animals born in captivity or rehabilitated from injury, placing visitors within close range of jaguars, tapirs, and scarlet macaws in open-air enclosures designed around native savanna and forest habitats.
