Saving the Last Viable Population of Scarlet Macaws in Mexico: Conservation, recovery and community stewardship in the Lacandon Rainforest September 17, 3:00-4:00PM Warren Hall 401 (Ag Quad) Cornell Main Campus 137 Reservoir Ave, Ithaca, NY 14853 Description The Lacandona is the last rainforest massif in Mexico. Natura y Ecosistemas Mexicanos centers its conservation efforts in the implementation of a sustainable development model in the region to revert environmental decline of its natural ecosystems and the protection of the last viable population of the scarlet macaw in Mexico. Diego's Bio Diego Noriega is a dedicated biologist specializing in avian conservation. After earning a degree in Biology from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), Diego began working with Natura Mexicana on the conservation of Mexico’s last population of scarlet macaws. Following four years of impactful work, he then pursued a Master’s degree in Biotechnology at the University of Queensland in Australia. Upon completing his studies, Diego returned to the scarlet macaw conservation project, continuing his commitment to protecting this critically endangered subspecies.
