Colombia holds more bird species than any other nation on Earth
In short: Beyond the common stereotypes lies a biological powerhouse. This documentary explores Colombia's status as the world's second most biodiverse country, focusing on its unique habitats and rare wildlife.
While often associated with danger or lawlessness, Colombia is actually home to approximately 14 percent of all species on Earth. It holds the global record for bird and vertebrate diversity, with wildlife adapted to a vast range of environments.
The film highlights the Serrania de la Macarena, an under-explored sandstone outcrop within the country's first national park. This region alone has seen more than 15 million specimens identified.
