Project Goals

  • Biodiversity Monitoring: Identify and document key species using trail cameras and on-site surveys.
  • Mapping Biological Corridors: Detect areas of transit, resting, and hunting to understand species behavior.
  • Awareness and Education: Create content to raise awareness among visitors and communities about the importance of protecting native wildlife.
  • Scientific Collaboration: Provide valuable data for long-term studies in partnership with NGOs and expert biologists.

Species to Monitor

  • Puma (Puma concolor): A top predator essential for ecosystem balance.
  • Geoffroy’s cat (Leopardus geoffroyi): A vulnerable and elusive species.
  • Colocolo cat (Leopardus colocolo): A potential sighting in areas near forests and grasslands.

Technology and Methodology

My subtitle

  • Use of Dark Ops Pro DCL Nano 4K No Glow trail cameras and Canon reflex cameras with high-resolution sensors and flashes.
  • Rotational monitoring over a 2,000-hectare area to maximize corridor coverage.
  • Regular maintenance to replace batteries, download data, and analyze images.

Expected Impact

  • Create a detailed map of local biodiversity.
  • Highlight the ecological importance of the Rupestre sector as a unique habitat.
  • Promote a sustainable ecotourism model that benefits both the community and the natural environment.
