Why This is Important
Isla Corazon Coastline Conservation Mangroves are a complex ecosystem that form a natural barrier against the sea on the coast. The fragile ecosystem is a breeding ground for baby fish, shells, clams, oysters, crabs, and other sea animals who require the shelter pf Mangroves to reproduce. When Mangrove forests are destroyed it directly affects the entire food chain and even threatens migratory birds who rely on the area for food with extinction. Already 90% of Ecuadors Mangrove Forests have been destroyed.
The Volunteer Perfect for this Program:
– People who are passionate about conservation
– People with English skills and a good level of Spanish
