Summary
Cuba is an island teeming with exotic biodiversity: from the world's tiniest hummingbird to thousands of migrating crabs, to the jumping crocodiles of the Zapata swamp. Decades of a socialist, conservation-minded government, American embargoes, and minimal development have left the island virtually unchanged for 50 years. As international relations ease, what will become of this wildlife paradise?
