Summary:

The main focus of the project is to provide an unique experience to participants, which will be engaged in a conservation project that make a real difference for endangered species and to the people that are their stewards.
The endangered species conservation programs we are addressing with these tours are the jaguar in Brazil and the tiger in the island of Sumatra, Indonesia.
Participants will see rainforests with unmatched beauty, walk trails in search of animals and their vestiges, and record all the information necessary to make a difference for the conservation of native habitats and species.
