The Research Center

In addition to biological studies, the Center is also involved in education and community outreach. Working together with our neighbors we are cultivating close relationships with schools and institutions to help with implementation of eco-friendly practices ranging from agriculture, mining and lumbering, ecotourism and water conservation and sanitation.
