In Ecuador, the Kichwa Sani Isla community and fStop Foundation are using high-resolution camera traps — some 40 meters up in the canopy — to document local wildlife.
Since Feb, they’ve recorded at least six jaguars, signalling a healthy ecosystem. Ecotourism at Sani Lodge helps protect the forest.

On an expedition to a remote Peruvian reserve to search for a squirrel last seen 30 years ago, researcher Silvia Pavan’s team instead discovered a new mouse opossum species, Marmosa chachapoya.
With reddish-brown fur and a narrow face, it highlights how understudied the eastern Andes remain.
