Volunteers work at a non-profit organization dedicated to environmental conservation, with the goal of fostering a connection between humans and nature. Through this bond, compassion and a sense of responsibility towards Mother Nature are developed.<\/p>\n
Programs aimed at improving the flora and fauna in the puma’s habitat have been developed through education and research. As a keystone species, the presence of the puma is vital to the biodiversity and abundance of other species in the area.<\/p>\n
Animals that have been trapped or trafficked as exotic pets are rescued, some of which are injured and are kept at the reserve for life, while others are allowed to return to the wild. In addition to pumas, rescued species such as indigenous eagles, ferrets, monkeys, llamas, and various birds and mammals are cared for.<\/p>\n
The reserve, located about 90 km southwest of C\u00f3rdoba, offers a stunning view of the Andes. The area, which has been impacted by forest fires and urbanization, is being restored by reintroducing native flora and fauna. <\/p>\n
Volunteers play a vital role in creating a sanctuary for pumas, which often sustain injuries while hunting in urban areas. With only 3% of C\u00f3rdoba\u2019s land still forested, the organization\u2019s mission is crucial. To enhance biodiversity and rejuvenate the ecosystem, the organization has established a greenhouse, where they cultivate native plants that will be reintroduced into the reserve.<\/p>\n
