Objetives and Justification

Increase the primary forest area and join it with other fields of the same kind arround the station. Also purchase fields for reforestation

Because of the ecological richness and its importance as one part of the last areas of primary forest in Central America. Also this area supports the migration of species and avoids the decline of genetic variety inside populations that sometimes are affected by isolation in smaller protection areas.

El Zota station expects to play an important role in the biological corridor project that is taking place along the Carribean side.

Investigate different fauna species through studies

Because at El Zota we have many species of trees and plants like bejucos (lianas, reeds) and herbs, which there is not enough information about regarding, their characteristics or their possible uses as food or medicine.

Incorporate the El Zota community and nearby towns into the idea of conservateion and study of the forest

Trying to eradicate hunting and deforestation which is the result of poor environmental education.
