Fri, Apr 26, 2019

Kika Silva is ready for the premiere of the 2019 season of Project Ark. There are 18,000 wetlands in Chile, but only 2% are protected, according to the Ministry of the Environment. Why are they important? What kind of fauna lives in them? How are we depredating and contaminating them? In Santo Domingo and Llolleo we will learn about research aimed at protecting these living spaces. In addition, we will know how and why a snake got into the engine of a car in a mall in Providencia. Stories to surprise us and make us aware of the beginning of the new season of The Ark Project.
