In any event, the kiddies will get a kick out of handling the cool-blooded things, or at least peering at them through reinforced glass.

Cantareira foi o nome dado à serra pelos tropeiros que faziam o comércio entre São Paulo e as outras regiões do país, nos séculos XVI e XVII, devido à grande quantidade de nascentes e córregos encontrados na região. Era costume, na época, armazenar água em jarros de barro, os cântaros, e o apoio usado para guardá-los, chamava-se Cantareira. Sua maior porção está localizada na zona norte de São Paulo, constituindo um importante remanescente da Mata Atlântica na metrópole, e de extrema relevância ecológica para o estado de São Paulo. Foi declarado parte da Reserva da Biosfera do Cinturão Verde da cidade de São Paulo pela UNESCO em 1994. Entre as atividades voltadas para a conservação, o PE Cantareira oferece à comunidade alternativas de lazer orientadas para a conscientização ambiental, visando engajar a sociedade na preservação da natureza.
