Finally, a government that is taking illegal #ASGM seriously. Well done @NacionWampis. Un ejemplo para todos. 💪💪💪 @MongabayOrg @MongabayLatam
@Nacionwampis expulsa a mineros ilegales en río Santiago. Maquinaria destruida y 6 mineros fueron expulsados.
🚫⛏️ El Gobierno Wampís exige al @MininterPeru acciones contra la minería ilegal.
¡La defensa del territorio no es negociable!

Do you know what @globalsouthbats is? They are a group of people aiming to connect and empower bat conservation allies in the GlobalSouth where locally--led research and conservation are most needed.
