In March, the Costa Rican Tourism Institute recognized organizations making strides toward more sustainable sites and beaches across the globe. We're thrilled to receive this accolade again, spotlighting our collective efforts at Piro Beach and our Biological Station.
This time, the Tropical Forest team embarked on an expedition in search of the endemic subspecies Magnolia sororum (subsp. lutea). Venturing into the field is crucial for acquiring meaningful information, enabling us to undertake sustainable conservation efforts.
Join us as we pioneer new frontiers in conservation with Dr. Jenna Lawson from @ukceh, unveiling the latest in #ConservationTech! 🌟📡 The AMI+ System (Automated Monitoring of Insects and Acoustics) is revolutionizing insect #monitoring with its non-invasive approach.
Este año, honraremos a las increíbles mentes jóvenes de nuestro Club de Montaña al Mar que destacan como protectoras de la biodiversidad de la Península de Osa. Únanse a nosotros el 27 de abril para una gran celebración de estos campeones del medio ambiente.
In this episode I’m joined by Andy Whitworth of @osaconservation, an organisation which is busy rewilding Costa Rica’s ever wilder Osa Peninsula. Liberated from low productivity, highly damaging cattle ranching, much of western Costa Rica is returning to forest. On the Osa…
Our Executive Director @AndyRainforest was featured on the podcast #RewildingTheWorld w/ Ben Goldsmith. Listen to learn more about how rewilding #CostaRica is a clear next step to build #resilience & bring back keystone wildlife species, starting w/ the white-lipped peccary.

FULLY #FUNDED #OPPORTUNITY TO LIVE & LEARN IN THE TROPICAL #RAINFOREST IN #COSTARICA. Fellowship now open. Seeking motivated conservationists to drive #rewidling & #marine #research alongside Osa Conservation for 6 months. Application closes May 7. osaconservation.org/about-us/oppor…
En el #ClubMontañaalMar investigamos la zona intermareal. Aprendemos sobre los organismos que viven en este ecosistema de transición entre el ambiente terrestre y marino; sobre las amenazas y desafíos a los que se enfrentan, y qué podemos hacer para protegerlos.
The Pl@ntNet application serves as a powerful tool for plant identification through image recognition. This tutorial outlines how you can effectively utilize the app for fieldwork or simply to explore the flora in your area. Don't hesitate to experience @Plantnet firsthand!
Did you know these ocean wanderers only leave the water to nest? Females embark on this rare journey to lay eggs, while males forever embrace the waves. Hatchlings and females play a vital role in beach sand dynamics and nutrient cycling.
¡El inicio de la temporada de nuestro club ya está aquí! Naveguemos por el Golfo Dulce, sumerjámonos en diversos ecosistemas. Descubramos los esfuerzos de conservación que dan forma a nuestra península y cómo podemos contribuir a preservar nuestro planeta.
We were delighted to host esteemed researchers. Nelson Zamora, a prominent botanist in Costa Rica, is renowned for his work on identifying numerous rare plant species. Daniel Barthélémy's research specializes in plant architecture, and co-founder of the Pl@ntNet (@Plantnet).
Sea Turtles are highly sensitive to artificial lights, which can disorient them and disrupt their nesting habits. We journeyed to Costa Rica's North Pacific to combat light pollution using covers made from repurposed buckets. @SEEturtles @leatherbacktrust @PlayaGrandeKidClub
During the month of March we had several monitoring tours in the Terraba-Sierpe National Wetland. These field monitoring tasks are arduous and challenging, so we need a committed team with the best attitude. Special thanks to the local people who assisted us in the field.
Researchers from Osa Conservation and beyond collaborated with NASA's DEVELOP program to produce and interpret the first publicly available maps of the region that differentiate between mature and secondary forests. 🔍Link to full article in bio.
Embark on over 30 km of trails, immersing yourself in #nature while delving into tree #ecology with our interpretive signs and QR codes. Featuring 300+ #native, #endemic, #rare, and #threatened tree species, the Osa #arboretum is an invaluable tool for nature.
Seeking a dynamic hospitality and operations leader to coordinate our campus. If you have experience in tourism, administration, marketing, or related fields and are ready to work in a remote setting supporting science and sustainability, send your CV to [email protected].
We're seeking a Communications Coordinator at our biological field station. If you're bilingual in spanish and english, passionate about storytelling, and skilled in photography, this role is for you! Click the link for details and apply today: osaconservation.org/about-us/oppor…
Let's explore the vital connection between #mangroves and #water c#onservation to mark Water Day! Mangroves serve as natural resource #guardians, filtering #pollutants and enriching water #quality. Join us in advocating for the #preservation of mangroves.
