I noticed you haven't gotten around to removing Las Boas from your top ten yet. The same is true for the article in The Iquitos Times. I hope you will do this soon. Please don't send any people to those horrible places. The greedy owners there now charge as much as 50 soles per person to visit these centers of animal abuse and exploitation. There's only one way to stop the cruelty against animals; by not supporting it with tourism dollars. Instead I would suggest to list Fundo Pedrito, the cayman farm in Barrio Florido, as a daytrip destination. They only charge 5 soles, and they take excellent care of their animals in a beautiful environment. For other great suggestions for daytrips, please visit www.ikitos.com/tourism Thanks Bill!
