Central American Bushmaster in Costa Rica
Lachesis stenophrys
The most reliable place to see the central american bushmaster in Costa Rica is remote, humid Caribbean foothill and mid-elevation forest, best May–Nov. The matabuey lives at very low densities and is a nocturnal, superbly camouflaged ambush hunter — a low-probability, high-reward target that takes serious night effort and an expert guide. No handling.
