The jaguar's characteristics, ecological importance, and the threats it faces from habitat loss, hunting, and the trafficking of its parts were explained. At the same time, a call for entries was launched for a short story contest about the jaguar, featuring stories rescued or written by children.

A meeting was also held with local authorities and teachers to explore their perceptions and concerns regarding jaguars. Informational materials were distributed to enhance their knowledge of the species and strengthen their ability to analyze its potential local benefits. The information provided will also help them propose future actions to promote jaguar conservation through education.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, since this Municipality is part of the Management Committee because it is in the area of influence of the PNNKM, they were informed about the support for the execution of the meeting of the members, within the framework of promoting the environmental governance of the local actors.<\/p>\n

Since the Remanso is located near the Protected Area on the banks of the It\u00e9nez, it can be considered a tourist potential, providing visitors with a spectacle of sighting of terrestrial and aquatic fauna characteristic of the region, accompanied by dreamlike landscapes of impressive sunrises and sunsets.<\/p>\n

The presence of key species such as dolphins, otters, deer, and jaguars could enhance this attraction, since domestic and international tourists would pay well to observe even the slightest trace of a jaguar, such as footprints, and of course, a direct sighting of the species would greatly enhance the experience. These are some of the attributes that could benefit the region through responsible tourism.<\/p>\n
