Committed to biodiversity conservation, Paso Pac\u00edfico conducts a wide range of research to identify and understand the flora and fauna of the Paso del Istmo. We consider different elements of wildlife across the landscape: birds, bats, bugs, and herps (amphibians and reptiles).<\/p>\n

We’re currently studying the Robber frog, the Painted Wood turtle, and the Five-keeled Spiny-tailed Iguana. Herp partners include the Turtle Conservancy<\/a>, the International Iguana Foundation<\/a>, and Wildlife Without Borders<\/a>: Working with people to conserve nature.<\/p>\n

Read more about current herpetological research in our\u00a0May Newsletter<\/a>.<\/p>\n
