Abstract
Conservation in Latin America is being given much more serious consideration than it was 10 or even 5 years ago. There is an awakening to realities and the knowledge, for instance, that a rain forest which appears to be inviolable now could be lost to future generations by the activities of a single lumbering crew. Effective communications have been established between the Latin American countries themselves and private nongovernmental conservation organizations both in Latin America and the United States. The Latin American Desk of The Nature Conservancy, headed by Dr. Maria Buchinger, is doing pioneer work in this field, and it is the hope of the author that there will soon be a Nature Conservancy in every one of the Latin American countries.
