Aripo Cave (original) (raw)
Aripo Cave (Aripo Main Cave) is a cave in the Northern Range, in Trinidad and Tobago. This is the longest accessible cave in Trinidad and Tobago, with 862 m length and 160 m depth. It is one of several caves created by recrystallised limestone. The cave is a notable bat roost, and that bats contribute considerable amounts of guano, which in turn support vast numbers of cave-dwelling invertebrates. One of the caves more notable inhabitants are the Oilbirds. These are the only nocturnal fruit-eating birds in the world. They forage at night, navigating by echolocation in the same way as the bats.

(en) Cueva de Aripo es una cueva de la cordillera norte o septentrional (Northern Range) en Trinidad y Tobago. Las cuevas son un refugio de murciélagos notable, y estos contribuyen con cantidades considerables de guano, que a su vez sostiene un gran número invertebrados. Sin embargo, los residentes de las cuevas más famosos son las aves llamadas guácharos. Estas son las únicas aves nocturnas que comen fruta en el mundo. Se alimentan por la noche, navegando con la ecolocalización de la misma forma como lo hacen los murciélagos. (es) |
