Our Work
Maintain Habitat For Our Wildlife
Reforestation
We have planted over 1000 trees during the past 13 years, that include Inga, Pindo, Ibira pita, Guayabo, Higeron, Curupi, Ubajay, Laurel, Ceibo, Lapacho, Orquidea.
Bat Research
Our bat team is the major researcher in the provinces of Corrientes and Misiones. We survey many locations for bats and conduct capture/release sessions, place static bat recorders for later analysis, search for roosts, rehabilitate bats, analyse bat guano, use radio transmitters to track bats, educate the general public,write scientific papers amongst other bat related themes.
Study Of Ibera Seedeater
Thi small seedeater was only described as a new species in 2016, although we have been observing it since we bought the former cattle ranch in 2010. It is one of the iconic birds of the reserve and birders come from many other countries to see it. It was considered EN until June 2024, now has been reclassified as NT, likely due to the amount of reports in EBird and other birding sites. We are fortunate to have been awarded a grant to study these birds from Mohamed bin Zayed Conservation fund. The project will start in the Argentine spring in 2025.
