Description
Since 2010, numerous conservation actions have been carried out, including the implementation of a perimeter fence to protect the area, surveillance patrols to monitor the ecosystem and prevent illegal activities, and the maintenance of trails and paths to facilitate mobility and monitoring. Additionally, water and food stations have been installed to support local wildlife, and reforestation projects have been executed to restore degraded areas and promote forest regeneration.
In terms of environmental education and research, Rancho La Onza has developed programs to raise awareness among the community and visitors about the importance of conservation. These programs include educational activities and research projects to better understand the ranch's biodiversity and ecological processes. Among the protected species at the ranch are the jaguarundi, being the first and only place in Guanajuato where its presence has been confirmed.
