About [Edit]
Fundacion Espiritu del Bosque is commited to saving the animals that live in the forests of Ecuador. To that end, we operate two wildlife rescue centers and return the animals to the wild whenever possible. We work closely with Ecuadorian authorities to rescue animals from captivity. In 2002, this partnership resulted in 700 animals being rescued, over 500 of which were liberated.
As part of our work to reintroduce captive animals, we also conduct research on the ecology and behavior of forest animals, particularly the Andean (Spectacled) Bear. The Foundation works closely with communities where bears live, to create more tolerance for the bears and understanding that it is illegal and wrong to harm them.
