At Jungla de Panama you will find 10-meter-high Monkey enclosures, several bird enclosures, animal petting and interaction areas, handicapped human /equine therapy areas, and grazing areas. Later, they added a bar and restaurant, plus a hostel to house volunteers, backpackers and people that would like to stay and hang out with the animals.

Jungla de Panama was founded in 2010, a single mom with three little kids moved to panama to retire to spend more time with her three young children. But retirement from 25 years of stateside professional animal rescue was not in the cards for her. Since Dorothy is such a big hearted person and can not say no. So when the locals found this out, they began to bring wild rain animals which had been injured, abandoned, abused, neglected, handicapped or were in need of hospice care, and thus, Jungla de Panama Wild life Rescue, Rehab and Release was born.
