Since 1997 the Blue Fronted Amazon Parrot Project has the fundamental support of the owners’ farm, at South Pantanal – Brazil, for all the field actions, scientific research and environmental education. The first farm to give us support was Refúgio Ecológico Caiman (www.caiman.com.br), and 10 years have past of continuous research in this area, with several data available. We can always count with the special attention and support of Dr. Roberto Klabin e his team.

On 2002, we began activities at Refúgio da Ilha Ecologia (www.refugiodailha.com.br) and at Fazenda San Francisco Agroecoturismo (www.fazendasanfrancisco.tur.br). Mr. Jairo e Mrs. Ivone (Refugio da Ilha Ecologia) and Mr. Roberto e Mrs. Beth (Fazenda San Francisco Agroecoturismo) have always been prompt to help us.

Regardless how long each farm has been supporting us, is important to highlight that their owners are aware of the importance to generate scientific knowledge that can contribute for Pantanal’s flora and fauna conservation.
Without their support it would not be able for us to carry trough our long term work with the parrots at Pantanal!

Thank you all!

Hi Glaucia, I love this blog. I really appreciate what you are doing and would love to hear about you - your day to day work, how you felt when those baby parrots were seized… are you and your team able to make a big difference in this? I also love all the characters in your blog - but I don’t know much about Brazil … I want to get the feel for Brazilian culture…
