Sun Angel’s Gardens, Peru

Location: Peru

Conservation Partner: Neotropical Primate Conservation (NPC)

TiME paid: $17,000 US

Size of purchase: 700 hectares

Ecoregion: Peruvian Yungas

TiME’s successful crowdfunding allowed the local community to expand and better protect an Amazonian conservation area. The original reserve’s horse-shoe shape made it harder to protect from illegal loggers, hunters and squatters. TiME purchased land in the interior U-shape and then signed it over to the local conservation organization, the Asociación de Productores Agropecuarios La Primavera (APALP). Now many rare, endemic and threatened species of birds and mammals, including the Endangered Royal Sun Angel Hummingbird (Heliangelus regalis) and the Endangered White-fronted Spider Monkey (Ateles belzebuth) are protected.
