Flora and Fauna
|
 Plants and wildlife abound in Cuba. There are over 8,000 species of plants, 200 species of butterflies and around 300-bird species. There are no poisonous species in Cuba. The island’s lakes are home to quail, pheasant and migratory ducks. The Zapata Peninsula, near the Bay of Pigs, is a prime bird-watching area. The Caribbean Sea and Atlantic Ocean, which surround the island, teem with marine life. There over 900 species — including swordfish, lobster and squid—and 400 kinds of mollusks. The country also has one of the world’s most important coral barriers — a diver’s paradise.
