The architect Eduardo Nycander has obtained this magnificent photograph in the Peruvian region of Tambopata. Commissioned by the scientist Charles Munn, he went to make artificial nests in the regions where the Araras of the jungle live and photographed during the rest hours, while these precious specimens hung in the mud ravine.

No doubt the araras were grazing. Scientists were surprised to see that vegetarians were vegetarians and that they were eating there. In the jungle, in fact, they could find the cloud to cover the belly of these vegetarians. Although they freeze with the seed of the plants, the sands of the Tambopata do not give up the clay snack that seems sweet.

Subsequently, it was verified that the clay contributes significantly to the digestive system of the clay, since it protects it with the poisonous seed of some plants that have as helicagics. Researchers have shown that clay helps them neutralize the poison and balance the diet. Minerals that do not contain vegetables are obtained in this way by Peruvian sands. It is certainly a clear example of a balanced heliport to consider.
