The second largest national park in the Amazon safeguards a huge tract of rainforest in eastern Peru between the Marañón and Ucayali rivers. More than 80 percent of the park is flooded during the high-water season between December and April, giving rise to the nickname La Selva de los Espejos ("Forest of Mirrors") because of the way the jungle reflects in the water. Jaguars, giant river otters, sloths, manatees, macaws, and river dolphins are among the species found in the park.
