You have arrived at a special place: El Impenetrable.
Here, you can still come across a tapir swimming in the river or an anteater roaming the trails, and you might even spot signs of a jaguar. El Impenetrable is a unique and fascinating territory, one that’s teeming with living nature.
El Impenetrable National Park, created in 2014 thanks to the efforts of conservation organizations and institutions, protects 128 thousand hectares of carob tree, palo santo, and quebracho forests; of grasslands, swamps, and lagoons; as well as endangered species like giant armadillos, giant anteaters, tapirs, maned wolves, and of course, jaguars.
REWILDING EL IMPENETRABLE
Throughout the past few decades, some of the species of El Impenetrable diminished alarmingly: guanacos and Pampas deer disappeared from the grasslands, marsh deer and giant otters from the marshes and rivers, and red-footed tortoises from the forest. At the same time, other species are endangered, such as Chacoan peccaries, giant armadillos, and jaguars.
Within this scenario, an innovative program of species reintroduction and environment management—known worldwide as rewilding—seeks to recover the region’s wildlife and promote a new local economy tied to wildlife-watching tourism.
