general information
|
Con alrededor de 338,000 hestáreas, el PNLT tiene como objectivo ecológico
mantener la continuidad del ecosistema que permite la diversidad natural.
Su objecto social es garantizar a los guatemaltecos el acceso a los beneficios
generados por esa biodiversidad, a través de actividades compatibles con
ella.
Generation of scientific data that will help further support the conservation work that is being threatened in the Maya Biosphere Reserve due to petroleum interests, ranching interests, and people seeking land for subsistence farming. Our scientific work includes collecting breeding data for the threatened scarlet macaw, which nests near the biological station (January through June). |
