About this organization
Mission
Conservacion Patagonica is dedicated to protecting and restoring wildland ecosystems and biodiversity in Patagonia through the formation of new national parks.
About
See Schedule OIn 2004 Estancia Valle Chacabuco was acquired to preserve with the goal of incorporating this property with two adjacent Chilean National Reserves to create the future Patagonia National Park. To create a 650,000-acre world-class protected area in central Chilean Patagonia will secure protection for a critical area of Patagonia, restore its ecosystems and endangered species, inspire an educate advocates for conservation and create a local economic alternative in ecotourism. High-quality public access is being developed - trail networks, campgrounds, lodging, a visitor center, park guard stations, and a cafe/restaurant - representing a top priority in the establishment of this flagship national park. Built from local materials, whenever possible, and in a regional style, the park's facilities are durable, energy-efficient, and beautiful. Programs that restore ecosystems, recover threatened wildlife, and engage local communities magnify the ecological and social benefits of land conservation in the transition from estancia to park. In creating the future Patagonia National Park, Conservacion Patagonia aims to ensure thriving populations of all native species. Since beginning this project in 2004, the top priority has been the recovery of the endangered huemul deer. We are studying the existing huemul population with radio telemetry and closely monitoring birth and death rates to understand the biggest threats to the deer in the region, including the puma. While studying the predation patterns of pumas, we simultaneously work to promote understanding of this top predator and wildlife-friendly strategies for managing livestock. In addition, new programs have been developed to monitor and protect the Lesser Rhea and Mountain Viscacha. The long-term conservation of Patagonia National Park ultimately depends on the local communities living around the park, their behaviors toward nature, their beliefs about its value, and their ability to protect it and benefit from its existence. A community engagement program has been launched to bring closer collaboration with the communities neighboring the park. Events, meetings and interviews with local community groups have been organized to expand public recognition and engagement with the project.
