Happy Saturday! Spectacled bears are one of the most arboreal bears there is. These small bears use their crampon claws to make their way to the high treetops, resting and waiting days for fruit to ripen. Who else thinks that this looks like a nice way to spend a weekend?

Involving rural communities is crucial to promote the conservation of spectacled bear habitat! Tucto is just one of the communities in northern Peru where we have trained local women the art of making felted animals that are sold around the world. …acled-bear-conservation.myshopify.com

Oh pardon us, Russ. We didn’t realize you were already in here taking a bath. We’ll leave you to it, sir.

Spectacled Bear Conservation recently installed more than 200 camera traps across Machu Picchu, the first study of this scale conducted in the Peruvian high Andes mountain ecosystem. But the adventure isn’t over yet. Data will be used to identify high Andean bear density areas for conservation.
