Flora and Fauna Itaipú Binacional
As a sop to the huge environmental damage caused by the dam, the builders were obliged to spend some money on remedial work such as relocation of wildlife and reforestation. One result is an interesting zoo with displaced jaguars and other animals. As part of this complex, you will also find two well-organized natural history and archaeological museums. It is located 2km (1 1/4 miles) from the Itaipú Visitors Center on the road back to Ciudad del Este.
