CONSERVATION SAFARI
In this excursion called “Conservation Safari”, passengers will accompany our professional trackers to the field, who have dedicated themselves to studying the pumas living on the Estancia. Through observation with binoculars, review of camera traps, talks and presentation of audiovisual material, the team of researchers will share with passengers their daily work, achievements and challenges.
​
On this excursion, passengers will learn not only about this magnificent feline, king of Patagonia, but also the varied wildlife characteristic of the region and our work to achieve harmonious coexistence between livestock and wildlife.
