Sharon and her staff have made the zoo the most visited destination in all of Belize!
Beyond Touring supports the zoo because it has wonderful educational programs and is making a real difference in Belize.

Green Hills Butterfly Ranch and Botanic Garden

while smaller breeding units make it possible to study individual species. In addition, there is ongoing research
in other areas not necessarily directly related to butterflies. Both Jan Meerman and Tineke Boomsma are well known
