Creatures of San Blas

Excerpts & pictures from Jaden's emails home on 8/30/2016:
"I'm sending these now since I couldn't do it yesterday. 
One pic is of some sand crabs that I caught. We tried using these once when I went fishing. These crabs and sardines work pretty well." 

Excerpts & pictures from Jaden's email sent home on 8/16/2016:

"Here is a close up pic of the hammerhead shark."  - which ended up being dinner for someone else in the tribe.


"The other pic is me holding the baby crocodiles" - which ended up being dinner for Jaden and his companion.

"This pick is interesting. Try finding the spider. The thing is massive. Bigger than the palm of my hand. Big spiders are common. Found that in the house of the San Blas zone leaders while we were there due to my comps foot."

7/13/2016:
"I just finished a service while this was loading. This is some cool bird that we saw. I might be a falcon. Or hawk. Not sure. Some type of predatory bird"

"One of those massive crabs on a palm tree. This is the type that lives in the ground I showed in other picture"

"One of those massive crabs on a palm tree. This is the type that lives in the ground I showed in other picture"

7/12/2016:
"One of these pictures is showing the holes that the big jungle crabs live in. I could be wrong but they might be called coconut crabs." 
"Trust me..you dont want to stick your hands down those holes I showed in the last pic. the crabs are huge and would really mess your hand up"

"The other is just another picture of a crab that I liked. I have never seen so many different species of crab in my life"

7/6/2016:
"Some pictures of the bats that are living in our roof."


7/4/2016:
"Here is a picture that I took with someones pet mountain pig. The thing is funny. It follows them around like a dog and makes funny squealing noises."

"The other picture is me with a massive toad. These things are all over the place at night. Crazy thing is...this isn't even as big as they get. I've seen bigger."
