Conservation of Endangered Guatemalan Species


FUNDESGUA, the Foundation for the Endangered Species of Guatemala, works in partnership with the Oklahoma City Zoo for the conservation of endangered Guatemalan species and ecosystems. Naturally restricted distributions along with persecution, habitat destruction, and complete absence of conservation action have put many Guatemalan reptile species in critical danger of extinction. FUNDESGUA strives for the protection of these species through a comprehensive approach involving applied research, direct habitat conservation, social programs, and conservation education, and is focused on keeping the products, practices, and employment it utilizes from within Guatemala. To date, the main target species are the Guatemalan beaded lizard and its associated ecosystem, and the arboreal alligator lizards of the genus Abronia, with eight endemic species in the country.
