Biodiversity monitoring
Put out a game camera with the team and see how fun it is to track, categorize, and monitor species abundance when an ecosystem is healthy and biodiverse!
Most of our sites have active monitoring programs run by Indigenous trackers who are true masters of Nature. But beware, this hiking is dangerous, hard, and not for the faint of heart. Think Tough Mudder, every day. We’ll help you get in shape before you come with targeted exercises, cultural competency, and the ideal jungle equipment.
Biodiversity monitoring at Savimbo sites is designed not only as a scientific activity but also as an cultural experience. Visitors and collaborators learn directly from Indigenous trackers, whose ancestral knowledge allows precise identification of species and ecosystem signals. This hands-on approach fosters respect for biodiversity while contributing valuable data to international conservation standards and long-term ecosystem resilience strategies. Participation requires thorough preparation, as the jungle demands resilience, teamwork, and adaptability, but it rewards participants with unique insights into ecosystem health and the living pulse of wild, untamed, sacred nature.
We specialize in biodiverse ecosystems, protected fairly by locals, and conscious travel. It’s important to us that travelers prepare adequately to have a meaningful experience of connection, cultural exchange, and direct connection with Nature, which is awesome! We 💜 ecotourists!
