Spectacled Caiman, Pampas, Bolivia
There are several different species of caiman that live throughout Central and South America. One of the most common is the spectacled caiman, otherwise known as the white caiman or the common caiman. It gets its name from the bony ridge between the eyes that resembles a pair of glasses. This particular spectacled caiman was enjoying the early morning light along the Yucama River in the Pampas region of Bolivia.
