We take in wild animals who were victims of illegal trafficking, rehabilitate them, and reintroduce them back into their natural habitats.
We also take care of those who can't be released, and carry out environmental education activities with visitors.
We're an NGO, so we can only continue helping animals thanks to your donations. Because of your support, these animals have a second chance.

TENA --> AMAZOONICO (Bus)
Starting in Tena, find one of two bus terminals, either "Jumandy" or "Centinela del Tena." Take a bus from either terminal to "Puerto Barantilla" ($2.40/1:30 hrs). At Puerto Barantilla, wait for a motor canoe and ask the driver to take you to amaZOOnico (10min). The frequency and cost of the canoe rides varies a lot, so we recommend that you order a canoe by calling Liana Lodge: (+593) 06 301 7702
MISAHUALLI --> AMAZOONICO (Canoe)
If you want to enjoy a longer canoe trip, you can come to amaZOOnico from Misahualli. They will take you to our animal rescue center and bring you back to the city after your visit.
