La Fortuna, Costa Rica - This country's modern-day Big Bang came in 1968 when its only constantly active volcano, Arenal, woke up from a 400-year geologic nap with a huge eruption that not only displaced thousands of villagers circling the mountain but also disrupted the lives of countless species of flora and fauna. Both Man and all other living things were probably already well adapted to the mobile lifestyle.

 

Arenal Volcano National Park covers 12016 hectares. Elevations range from 1000 to 1657 meters (3281 to 5436 feet). The habitats represented here are cloud forest margin/edge freshwater river regenerating tropical rainforest-lowland
