Special thanks to Paul Weulersse and Andrea Aguinda Vlog for helping us plant the saplings that will one day become huge trees or palm trees.

Our team just came back from an expedition to Manabí province in western Ecuador 🇪🇨 to find the 🐍 considered to be closest to extinction in the country. A reptile last seen alive sometime between 1996 and 1998. The project was made possible thanks to a grant from the Auckland Zoo Conservation Fund.

You can watch the full documentary on YouTube: 👉 https://youtu.be/hB9Rtts33Bg

So deeply grateful for helping us save reptiles at the brink of extinction.
