Save Aymara Lodge in the Pantanal From Fires!

Hello Friends and Wildlife heroes!
I am raising money for Giuliano Bernardon, the owner of Aymara Lodge in the Pantanal of Brazil.  Giuliano is a phenomenal naturalist guide and just all around stellar human being.  Many of you have met and know Giuliano. The Pantanal is currently burning with horrible fires and his lodge and the forest and animals that live there are very much in danger of being destroyed by the fires.  In a "normal" year where many people would be visiting the Pantanal, there would be money for Giuliano to fight the fires and save his lodge, but in this unprecedented time of Covid, there are no tourists in the Pantanal and no money coming in to buy the equipment and help that he needs.  He desperately needs the money  to  rent a tractor, bulldozer,  and hire people to help to clear fire breaks around his property and also to dig a well.  Giuliano is one of the most passionate conservationists I've ever met anywhere in the world, and he puts his heart and soul into conserving the environment and helping to save wildlife, a passion and mission that I share with him.  Many of you have been to the Pantanal with me and were in awe of what we saw there!   Amazing sightings of jaguars, tapirs, giant anteaters, endangered giant otters, Hyacinth Macaws, and so much more!  Please donate what you can as this plea is urgent.  I know a lot of people are facing financial hardship, myself included, but let's help Giuliano save his lodge and forest and the animals that live there!  Thank you all for your support!!  And I hope to see you all soon on another great wildlife adventure, as soon as we can travel again!!
