High in the mountains of Colombia, cloud forests create one of the most biodiverse ecosystems on the planet. Here, the flora, fauna, and fungi of three ecosystems mix together, creating an incredible density of species.
But cattle pasture continues to fragment and degrade this special landscape – a practice dating back to colonial times.
That’s why, together with Planet Wild and Fundación Magnolios, we’ve purchased land to protect it and support the forest’s natural regeneration.
From ancient tree species that evolved alongside dinosaurs to five species of wild cats that rule the terrain - watch the video to find out what starts to return when nature is given space to come back.
