The Challenge is Underway!
From the boys’ team- Finding a total of 16 amphibs and reptiles on a half night-survey, including 3 glass frogs (Teratohyla midas), an Amazon Wood Lizard (Enyalioides laticeps), and an ornate snail-eating snake (Dipsas catesbyi)!
From the girls’ team- An incredible carved wooden bird to sweep the native art challenge.
Currently, the build-a-raft with a machete and the forest challenge is underway… Using vines for chord and searching high and low for species of trees whose wood floats, we’ll see who sinks, and who swims.
Our final challenge requires YOUR votes… Whose competition-ready costume is better: the jungle pirate men, or the Amazonian warrior women?

Girls all the way! Mainly because Jas is totally fierce in this photo -- if I were on the boys team and ran into her in the woods at midnight, I would just turn over the win right then & there! :)
This is hard - but boys, this time. Although the girls team looks good, and girls can be really fierce, their outfits are a tad too uniform. The boys costumes are more colourful, varied and creative while still within the bounds of their theme. It was close though.
Go the Girls!!! Looking lovely in jungle attire ready for fierce battle
I'll go for the ladies' team...go and kick some @&^%@@
The boys have this one, I think. They've managed to come out prettier :O
The boys are far more pleasing to the eyes!
The real Amazon girls are usually topless!
Overall both teams were fantastic and both deserve to win after all it is a great cause they are playing for.
