This is a picture of the Las Guacamayas Biological Field Station in Peten, Guatemala. It is part of the Mayan Biosphere Reserve and the most technically advanced facility on the Reserve. There are eight buildings which house different research areas. The station is open to students from high school to graduate school and professors give lectures that are open to the local community.
I thought this was pretty cool. This is the Jieta Grotto in Lebanon. It's made up of two limestone caves and they're about five and a half miles long. Abandoned since prehistoric times, the lower cave in the grotto was rediscovered in 1836. It has one of the biggest stalactites in the world and has really remarkable rock formations.
Obviously, this is the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Volcano eruptions over the years have given the area a distinct ecosystem. Besides, it looks really cool.

Now for the animals.
I've always loved lions. I think it might have something to do with my childhood obsession with the Lion King. :)
