Cueva de la Quebrada del Toro is also named De Beilard's Cavern in
honour to De Beilard, the Venezuelan speleologist who
explored it for the first time.
Like many caves in the area it is inhabited by oilbirds.

This cave is an active river cave, with the largest so far known underground watercourse in Venezuela. The underground river forms two big lakes, both over 200 metres long, which can be crossed on small boats.
