Bolivia Trivia Interesting Facts Bolivia Trivia could become the next new snazzy everybody's-into-it game! Yes it could! Could too! OK, so it isn’t a real game and as far as we know, no game company has actually manufactured one but we thought it would be interesting to add a little section on curious and unusual facts about Bolivia. You know, as if we weren’t having enough fun already...

There are many stereotypes and misconceptions about this country and many stunning, jaw-dropping, eccentric small items of interest. Did you know, for example, that there is a huge flock of pink flamingos on the freezing cold Altiplano 15,000 feet above sea level? Or that there is such a thing as a pink dolphin and it swims in the Amazon? Or that ... OK, not everything is going to be about pink stuff… you can read more interesting information about Bolivian birds and animals by following this link on WILDLIFE TRIVIA.

This trivia section will not be limited to Santa Cruz - we'll provide interesting, unusual facts from all around the country.
