Just to thank you and to show how important your support is to me. I am sending the pictures of our team working and using the portable inhalator anesthesia equipment, and thanks to this equipment supported by IDEA WILD, we can perform smooth, safe and quick recovery anesthesia for anteaters and armadillos captured in the wild!!!!

I have to thank you for your unconditional support, for me it was really important, and I will, I want to tell you that few weeks ago I finished my research project and in the thesis defense I received a meritorious grade, but even more important is that officials of National Parks of Colombia have recognized the importance and scope of my work and they are going to take it into account for the development of the new management plan for the NNP Tama, which is significant because it allows to obtain the effective conservation actions of the biodiversity of the protected area, that not only benefit the spectacled bear, but overall the fauna and flora of the area.
