the world. We are trying to create a project whose main objective is to reveal, care for, and spread this passion to others. This is how, in 2016, the idea of Photo Wildlife Tours begins to take shape. This is an incentive with which we try to awaken the amazement of whoever wishes to accompany us on this adventure. We will experience nature, while simultaneously supporting various programs focused on research, education, conservation and sustainable tourism.

Desde que abrimos el corazón al mundo natural, a cada ser, a cada roca que coexiste en esta nave espacial llamada Tierra, la fotografía y la aventura nos ha llevado a recorrer lugares deslumbrantes, a conocer criaturas indoblegables y vivir momentos que jamás se borrarán de nuestras memorias. Tras continuos años de esfuerzos por registrar estos mágicos lugares y su biodiversidad, hemos sentido la necesidad de compartir, de crear un proyecto cuyo objetivo es revelar, cuidar y transmitir esta pasión y experiencias con los demás. Así, en el año 2016, surge el sueño de Photo Wildlife Tours, una iniciativa con la que pretendemos despertar el asombro de quien nos acompañe a conocer la naturaleza y al mismo tiempo apoyar diversos programas de investigación, educación, conservación y turismo sostenible.

1. Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world and is located in the Indian Ocean, off the southeast coast of Africa.

2. The fauna and flora of Madagascar are unique, as approximately 90% of the plant and animal species found on the island are not found anywhere else in the world.

3. The lemur is an endemic primate of Madagascar and has become an iconic symbol of the country. There are over 100 different species of lemurs on the island.

4. Madagascar is home to the Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park, a unique geological formation consisting of sharp limestone needles that create a spectacular landscape.

5. The official language of Madagascar is Malagasy, but French is also spoken on the island due to past French colonization.

The puma (Puma concolor), also known as mountain lion, American lion, or cougar, is a widely distributed species of feline throughout the entire American continent. Its extraordinary adaptability allows it to inhabit a variety of habitats, from jungles and forests to deserts and mountains, contributing to its presence in almost all of the continent.

Despite its distribution spanning from Canada to the southern tip of Chile and Argentina, the best place to see them is undoubtedly Torres del Paine National Park, located in the Chilean Patagonia. By respecting their territory and food sources, a bond of respect has been built between animals and humans, providing us with a wonderful opportunity to witness their majesty. The experience of seeing this magnificent feline walk is truly unforgettable.

Perfect combination, Scintillant hummingbird (Selasphorus scintilla).

Selasphorus scintilla, also known as the Scintillant hummingbird, is a species that inhabits the high mountains of Costa Rica and Panama.

It is recognized for its iridescent plumage with shades of orange. It doesn’t exceed 8 centimeters in length, but it is still capable of beating its wings up to 80 times per second, allowing it to remain suspended in the air while feeding on nectar.

Nuestro último artículo sobre conservación de anfibios ha sido publicado ( https://doi.org/10.1038/s43247-023-01069-w). Debido a la terrible situación que enfrentan los Atelopus (conocidos como ranas o sapos arlequines) hemos analizado las poblaciones de 131 especies (especies descritas y no descritas) desde el 2004 (tras el último análisis de La Marca et al. 2005) hasta el 2022.
Las noticias de redescubrimientos, aunque dan esperanzas, no son un síntoma de recuperación de especies. Los resultados nos muestran que a pesar de los esfuerzos de conservación, no se ha logrado mejorar la situación de las poblaciones de Atelopus.
Con esto hacemos un llamado de atención sobre la urgente necesidad de aumentar la inversión económica en los esfuerzos de investigación y conservación de este tan preciado pero maltrecho género de Anfibios que, en décadas pasadas, brindaba sus colores a gran parte de los bosques de Latinoamérica. Además, es necesario que esta atención se extienda al resto de anfibios del mundo, cuya protección está poco o nada considerada.
Our latest article on amphibian conservation has been published in (https://doi.org/10.1038/s43247-023-01069-w). Due to the terrible situation faced by the Atelopus (known as harlequin frogs or harlequin toads) we have analyzed the populations of 131 species (described and undescribed species) from 2004 (after the last analysis by La Marca et al. 2005) until 2022 .
News about rediscovery, although it gives hope, is not a symptom of species recovery. The results show us that despite conservation efforts, the situation of Atelopus populations has not been improved.
With this, we call attention to the urgent need to increase economic investment in research and conservation efforts of this precious but battered genus of amphibians that, in past decades, provided its colors to a large part of the forests of Latin America. . Furthermore, it is necessary that this attention be extended to the rest of the world's amphibians, whose protection is little or not considered at all.

Yellow-eared Parrot(Ognorhynchus icterotis)

Previously they could be found in Ecuador and Colombia, but due to the deforestation, in southern Ecuador, of the palm tree where they usually nest and rest, now it is only possible to see them in certain areas of Colombia.

They usually fly in large flocks and make loud sounds to scare off potential predators.

Let us introduce one of the most beautiful birds in the world, the Spangled coquette (Lophornis stictolophus).

The males of the species have a crest of orange plumage with black circles on its tips. Its throat is formed by black, orange, and iridescent green plumage. When it is the breeding season, they open their feathers (crest, throat, wings and tail) showing to the females all their beauty.

It is worth mentioning that it requires a lot of patience and luck to photograph them.

Nuestra historia

Since we opened our hearts to nature, to every being, to every rock that coexists in this spaceship known as Earth, photography and adventure have taken us to discover dazzling places, see creatures unlike any other, and live moments that will forever remain in our memories. After several years trying to register these magical places and their biodiversity, we have felt the need to share them with the world. We are trying to create a project whose main objective is to reveal, care for, and spread this passion to others. This is how, in 2016, the idea of Photo Wildlife Tours begins to take shape. This is an incentive with which we try to awaken the amazement of whoever wishes to accompany us on this adventure. We will experience nature, while simultaneously supporting various programs focused on research, education, conservation and sustainable tourism. --------------------------------------------------------------- Desde que abrimos el corazón al mundo natural, a cada ser, a cada roca que coexiste en esta nave espacial llamada Tierra, la fotografía y la aventura nos ha llevado a recorrer lugares deslumbrantes, a conocer criaturas indoblegables y vivir momentos que jamás se borrarán de nuestras memorias.
