NOTES FROM THE FIELD | 2023 | No.7
Science at the Source
[link removed]
Amid lush vegetation and the sound of rain dripping from leaves,
you're surrounded by a dazzling array of wildlife. Peculiar
primates
[link removed]
, elusive jaguars,
[link removed]
and mesmerizing leafcutter ants
[link removed]
scurry through the trees and stalk across the forest floor. Here,
deep in the Amazon rainforest
[link removed]
, you're far from anywhere-and yet, you're at the
heart of everything.
As the world's largest tropical rainforest, it generates oxygen,
affects global weather patterns, and plays a pivotal role in
mitigating climate change. This ecosystem is as vital as it is
remote-and making conservation accessible, affordable, and
effective here is crucial to protecting these habitats so all life can
thrive.
With your support, we're bringing high-quality, low-cost
scientific resources and technologies to the rainforest. Together with
our partners, we launched the Wildlife Conservation Laboratory at Los
Amigos Biological Station in the southeastern Peruvian Amazon. At this
in situ, or "in place" lab, we're monitoring
biodiversity and ecosystem health, empowering local scientists, and
addressing regional threats-all right at the source.
You make it all possible through our Amazonia Conservation Hub
[link removed]
! And for these groundbreaking efforts, alongside our partners,
we're honored to be recognized by Fast Company's 2023
World Changing Ideas Awards
[link removed]
in the Nature category. With you by our side, we're changing
the future of conservation, maintaining healthy ecosystems, and saving
rich biodiversity for generations to come.

Physical Therapy for Animals

LET'S GET PHYSICAL (THERAPY)
Whether a geriatric Galpagos tortoise
[link removed]
, an armadillo
[link removed]
with arthritis, or a cheetah
[link removed]
with tightness in their spine, animals experience the same challenges
and wear-and-tear on their bodies that we do. And as it turns out,
physical therapy
[link removed]
can make all the difference for wildlife, too. With solutions like
therapeutic exercise, massage, and even acupuncture, we're at
the forefront of physical rehabilitation for animals. Stretch out, and
explore how you're fueling innovative care for wildlife.
