Wildlife Around You
At Sabalo Lodge, wildlife is not something you search for — it finds you. Day and night, animals move freely between the jungle and the lodge. Some stay hidden, others appear just a few steps from your cabin or tent. These videos are real moments captured by our cameras and guests. No staging, no guarantees — just the jungle as it truly is.
Raccoon - Raccoons crossing into Sabalo Lodge at night
Night activity at Sabalo Lodge. Raccoons regularly move from the jungle into the lodge area using the bridge between Amapola and Tucancito. These intelligent nocturnal animals are among the most frequent night visitors and can often be observed quietly exploring the surroundings.
Raccoons are one of the most common nocturnal visitors at Sabalo Lodge. These clever and adaptable animals move quietly through the jungle and often enter the living areas at night in search of food. They are curious, intelligent, and surprisingly confident around human structures. Although they are seen regularly, they remain part of the wild — always active, always alert, and never fully predictable.
Where: Bridge between Tienda Amapola and Tienda Tucancito; beginning of the yellow trail near Tienda El Tecal
Tip: Raccoons appear almost every night at Sabalo Lodge. While they often walk through the living area, the best chance to observe them directly from your tent is in Tienda El Bosque. This tent is located opposite the bridge that raccoons use to cross from the jungle into Sabalo Lodge.
