Belize – A Land of Resilience

Season 2 Episode 202

Belize is the smallest country in Central America both in size and population. Nearly 75% of the forests here still stand. 1,200 years ago there may have been over 3 million people in Belize, today there are only slightly over 300,000. The wildlife managed to survive and many of the species have a seldom noticed connection to man.
