Patagonia has several native animals. We saw the Guanaco (a Llama like animal), Nandu (an Ostrich like bird), the Antarctic duck, the Tian Petrol bird, the royal and rocky Cormorant birds. We toured a small museum and saw the reconstructed bones of a two year old Southern Right Whale that beached itself and died. We took a boat ride around Gulfo Nuevo in Puerto Piramide and saw the rock formation that looks like a pyramid. We also saw a small colony of Sea Lions. We looked for the whales that are usually here from May to December and sure enough, they had all gone to their other home in January.
