Bosques Yungas

One more camera in the forest!! We continue monitoring biodiversity to learn which species inhabit our territory and how they use this landscape under restoration.
This information is key to measuring the impact of our restoration efforts and guiding future conservation actions.

We head out to install camera traps for wildlife monitoring. This work helps us understand how the forest’s health is evolving. Because a forest is not just trees: it’s a living network where animals, plants, and other organisms all play a key role.

On World Wildlife Day, we highlight an essential truth: restoring forests means restoring homes.

Through native species production, seasonal planting, and long-term monitoring, we are rebuilding habitat in the Yungas of Argentina. Every seed we sow contributes to food sources, shelter,

Monitoring biodiversity is a key part of restoration because it helps us understand the health of the forest.
In this video, you can see a family of tayras (Eira barbara), a species that needs dense, healthy forest to move, hunt, and raise their young.

Forest restoration isn’t just about planting trees — it’s about giving back the habitat to the wildlife of the Yungas forest. Our camera trap monitoring shows animals starting to return, a sign that the forest is getting its health back. In this video we share the brown brocket deer

We continue studying the biodiversity in the forest. This is essential to be able to understand the state of the forest and the efficiency in our restoration efforts.

In this ocassion, we are monitoring our medium and large sized mammals through the use of “camera traps”. Through

In our latest Tree-Nation Reforestation Stories, we talk with Paula Bellsola from Bosques Yungas—a family-led project restoring Argentina’s Yungas Forest.

Since 1998, they’ve:
🌱 Planted 74,000+ native trees
🌿 Reintroduced understory species
📷 Used AI + camera traps to track

Have you heard of the chilto (Solanum betaceum)?
It’s a fruit-bearing tree native to the Yungas forest. It can grow up to 5 meters tall and is known for its large leaves and orange to reddish fruits, which are edible for both wildlife and people. The chilto not only adds biodiversity

Our camera traps brought us an incredible surprise: a "Oso melero" (Tamandua tetradactyla).
This charming neighbor of the yungas, a relative of anteaters, thrives in forests, woodlands, and savannas. Its diet is truly unique—it loves ants, termites, wasps, and even honey! With its

Today, October 5th, we celebrate National Bird Day in Argentina, recognizing the essential role birds play in maintaining the balance of ecosystems. From seed dispersal to pest control and pollination, birds contribute to the health of our environment. However, habitat loss and deforestation

Exciting news for our Biodiversity program!
We’ve identified the first ocelot individual within the project! How? Ocelots have unique fur patterns, like a fingerprint. With the help of camera trap footage and artificial intelligence, we can efficiently recognize each individual.

We've installed new signs in the forest!

Adding signs in areas under restoration is crucial. They play a vital role in guiding people, ensuring compliance with rules, raising environmental awareness, and providing information about the area.

This time, we placed signs in the most

We continue monitoring our terrestrial vertebrates of the forest. Each site is monitored throughout 40 days straight with our trap cameras. After that, we watch all the videos and registered and analyze the data.

Here is one of our favorite videos of the Yaguarundí (Herpailurus
