School Initiative: Bayano

This Wednesday we will be in the community of Bayano for our annual Spider Monkey School Initiative, organizing activities with elementary school children and the larger community about the Azuero spider monkeys, and the dangers they face from hunting, development, deforestation and vulnerability of the ecosystem of the dry tropical forest. At night there will be a screening of “Cuando Vuelvan los Bosques”, a documentary about the legacy of deforestation en Azuero and new innovative reforestation practices in Azuero and Panama.
