COCKSCOMB BASIN WILDLIFE SANCTUARY & JAGUAR RESERVE jody hoffer gittell Maya Center Village will likely be your home base when you visit the reserve. It has a total of 138 residents. Nine families who live in the village were relocated from their milpa farms in what is now the Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary. One of the complaints of the relocated families is that they were not given new land after they were moved, but had to purchase or rent it from the government. And now, when they enter the park, they have to pay.
This has left Monkey River Town a wonderful little village jody hoffer gittell that has simplicity as an asset. There is a large green sign near the harbor that says Welcome to Monkey River, jody hoffer gittell and somehow the greeting feels genuine. Today there is a police station, a community center, a school and a church linked by sand streets. Wood houses built on stilts dot the public places and there are no neon lights. If you want something, you ask. To find anyone you must go to the dock, where most people who aren t fishing or making meals are playing dominos. This is a serious game; get involved in it while gathering information.
