Saint-Martin/Sint-Maarten conceals of surprises, the flora provided with a dry ground lets push various sorts of cactus, but it benefits also from a wet forest protected by the mountainous chain of the Pic Paradise which allows her to have more luxuriant flowers... The fauna is constituted largely by small rodents and birds migratory and sedentary. The "autochthons" very conscious of their wealth set up plans of installation and natural reserves (the Maritime Park and the Park of Hills), "special" farms exist on both sides of the island: near the oriental bay, the farm to the butterflies assailed the guests by clouds of colour, to Parrot Jungle ( Dutch side) is a farm the breeding of which is (constituted) by parrots, parakeets and of cockatoo.
