La Senda Verde, Wildlife sanctuary in Coroico, Bolivia
This wildlife refuge spans across the Yungas region, providing shelter to over 1000 animals from 75 different species of the South American fauna.
Vicky Ossio and Marcelo Levy established La Senda Verde in 2003 as a response to increasing wildlife trafficking in the Bolivian region.
The sanctuary implements educational programs to inform visitors about wildlife conservation practices and the effects of illegal animal trade in Bolivia.
Visitors can reach the sanctuary by taking a two-hour minivan ride from La Paz to Coroico, followed by a short local transport to the refuge.
In 2010, the sanctuary faced severe flooding when mining operations altered the Coroico River channel, leading to substantial facility reconstruction.
