Yesterday, news outlets everywhere reported the discovery of three new amphibian species in the Colombian Chocó: a spectacular ruby-eyed toad, a beaked toad, and a new rocket frog. Right now World Land Trust-US has the opportunity to protect the only habitat of these fascinating new species, before it is too late. We need your help to buy and save 5,500 acres of lush rainforest. Read more.

WLT-US supported our Ecuadorian partner Fundación Jocotoco to acquire three new properties totaling 229 acres - greatly expanding the Narupa Reserve. Situated between the Antisana and Sumaco volcanoes, this reserve protects rich Andean cloud forests that rise out of the Amazon basin. We continue to expand this important cloud forest reserve.

WLT-US has helped expand the El Dorado Reserve, home to dozens of globally threatened birds, plants and amphibians. A 250 acre historic farmstead called Vistanieves was added in conjunction with ABC and Fundación ProAves to protect an extraordinary diversity of species, including 635 species of birds, three of which are Endangered and only known from this region.

This year WLT-US has saved 124,768 acres from the Colombian Andes to the Bolivian Amazon. Thank you for supporting our proven efforts to stop deforestation and save endangered species. Read more.
