Sharing Life Diversity

Donation protected
My name is Fernando Vaca and I am a naturalist guide from the remote Yasuni National Park in the Ecuadorian Amazon Rainforest.
I have been lucky enough to explore this unique wilderness since 1998. I have been discovering its diversity, from tiny ants to elusive jaguars, and sharing these discoveries through the internet. My wish is to continue doing so for many years to come.
In order to achieve this goal I would like to buy proper equipment to continue capturing wildlife events to share with you. The equipment needed is:

· 20 HD Camera Traps
· 4 Bioacoustics Recorders
· 1 Sounds Recorder
· 2 Microphones
· 2 4K Video Camera with Lenses
· 2 Full Frame Canon Body
· 1 500 mm Lens
· 1 180 mm Macro Lens
· 2 Binoculars 10X42
· 1 Solar Station
· 1 Digital Weather Station
· 1 Laptop
· 1 Desktop Computer
· 5 External Disk 5 TB
· 2 Kayaks
· Travel Cases
· Travel Expenses
· Food & Board
· Memory Cards
· Website

I would like to gather all your donations by the end of February 2016.

The Yasuni Biosphere Reserve is home to an outstanding diversity of life. It holds about 30% of the mammals of the entire Amazon Basin; about 644 tree species in one hectare; the 150 amphibian species documented to date is a world record among comparable landscapes. Over 560 bird species have been recorded, one of the highest known totals in the world.

The conservation of all this diversity of life is urgent and the public must become more aware of its importance for the sake of future generations.
