In June 2006 I travelled with Randy Frakes to Iquitos, Peru. There we boarded El Arca, a funky river boat, and travelled upstream several hundred miles on the Maranon and Ucayali Rivers (these two join to form the Amazon.) We loitered, photographed, swam with the Piranhuas, fished for Piranhuas, and trekked in the tropical rain forest. These snapshots show a few of the local critters.
This shows just the head of a large anaconda loitering in the river next to the boat.
Here is a tiny Cat's Eye snake.
This is a Hoatsin bird hanging out in the bushes by the river.
