Indio Maíz Biological Reserve measures about 4,500 square kilometers and is situated on the southeastern corner of Nicaragua bordering the San Juan River.

The ''Indio Maíz Biological Reserve'' was established as a protected area in the 1990s, after Bosawas. Indio Maiz boasts a large number in species of both flora and fauna. It is estimated to be home to over 400 species of birds, 200 species of reptiles and 4 species of wild cats.
Some of the mammals present include pumas, jaguars, armadillos, sloths, raccoons, wild boar and the incredible tame manatees and many other unusual animals.〔(Nicaragua.com ) National Parks - Indio Maíz Biological Reserve〕 Also present are several different species of monkey, most notably the White-headed Capuchin, along with howler and spider monkeys. Recent research has shown that both Baird's Tapirs (Tapirus bairdii) and Jaguars (Panthera onca) have important population strongholds in the reserve.
Among the reptile family, brightly colored poison dart frogs like Oophaga pumilio, iguanas, snakes such as Lachesis muta and Bothriechis schlegelii. Fishes like tarpons are common. The world's only freshwater shark, Nicaragua shark,〔(Nature.com ) The Nature Conservancy in Nicaragua〕 known elsewhere in the world as the Bull Shark or Zambesi Shark is also present in the San Juan River which borders the reserve. However, Nicaragua has recently banned freshwater fishing of the Nicaragua shark because of population declines.〔(UnderwaterTime.com ) Nicaragua bans freshwater shark fishing amid dwindling population numbers〕
