Boi

Boi lies on the uplands between the Uruçuí-Una and the Riozinho, tributaries in the Parnaíba basin. The flat top of the Serra Grande falls sharply towards valleys cut by small streams, many of them seasonal. Cerrado grasses, shrubs and scattered trees cover the plateau, while buriti palms grow beside water and gallery forest follows the larger rivers. Maned wolves, rheas and giant anteaters inhabit this varied country.
