Transitional tropical dry forest/cloud forest. At the end of the suspension-bridge canopy tour was our little adventure for the day, a rope ladder rigged through the cavity of a mature Strangler Fig. (The original tree the Strangler Fig vines formed around and strangled has since rotted away, leaving the fig as a freestanding mature tree with a hollow center.)
