We hope to establish a forum of information to assist in the future education of the problem of the illegal logging and bushmeat in South America

These pages will hold all the information that we needed to set up this expedition and much more about the problems of hunting and illegal logging in South America. For Africa this information has long been gathered by bushmeat.org into exhaustive and comprehensive websites.
As yet nothing comparable exists so far for the Neotropics. To faciliate future expeditions to South America please contact us and send any information that you have and consider relevant.

Thanks for your help !
