Local communities in the municipality of San Agustin, in the south of Colombian Andes, became interested on their natural resources, then they got involved on biodiversity monitoring using camera traps. Mountain Tapir Forever has joined them in order to develop a strategy that helps on the conservation of mountain tapir and the ecosystems associated to the species. We work together with members of the community in the assessment of the connectivity of the Guacharos-Puracé biological corridor, through the Puraguá Tapir Corridor.
