Costa Rica is known for having a huge diversity of spectacular wildlife as well as being a leader in the protection of its natural resources. This rainforest regeneration project takes place in the Osa Peninsula on the country's western coast.
Rainforests form a network of animal territories, yet in some locations the forests have become isolated due to human development and resource depletion. This prevents creatures from completing their normal migration patterns and can become genetically isolated. This project allows your group to get hands on experience with the reforestation of biological corridors. Creating biological corridors is vital to allow movement between protected areas to help maintain the massive diversity of animals and plant life that can be found in Costa Rica. Tasks on the project are varied and range from planting young trees and vegetation to completing wildlife population surveys in areas which have previously been regenerated.
