파나마, 코이바국립공원
- Coiba National Park and its Special Zone of Marine Protection.
* 파나마 남서해안에 위치한 코이바 국립공원은 코이바 섬을 보호하는 국립공원으로 엘니뇨와 추운바람을 막아주는 치리끼만안에 있는 38개의 작은 섬과 해안 지역으로 구성되있다.
* Coiba National Park, off the southwest coast of Panama, protects Coiba Island, 38 smaller islands and the surrounding marine areas within the Gulf of Chiriqui. Protected from the cold winds and effects of El Niño, Coiba’s Pacific tropical moist forest maintains exceptionally high levels of endemism of mammals, birds and plants due to the ongoing evolution of new species. It is also the last refuge for a number of threatened animals such as the crested eagle. The property is an outstanding natural laboratory for scientific research and provides a key ecological link to the Tropical Eastern Pacific for the transit and survival of pelagic fish and marine mammals.
