Jorge Bogantes Montero

Naturalist, Anacostia Watershed Society

Costa Rica Native and Naturalist Jorge Bogantes Montero helps us experience the magic of his home country. Bigger than Maryland and smaller than West Virginia, the small Central American nation has long captivated naturalists from around the world. Nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea in the Ring of Fire, Costa Rica has been shaped by plate tectonics and volcanic activity, resulting in complex biogeography and extravagant biodiversity that make a naturalist feel like a kid in a candy store. Jorge will take you on a virtual journey of pure nature enjoyment.
