El Chaco Biosphere Reserve: A Biodiversity Hotspot in the Heart of Paraguay
Nestled in the northern reaches of Paraguay, the El Chaco Biosphere Reserve is a testament to the country's rich natural heritage and ecological diversity. The reserve encompasses a remarkable range of permanent and temporary ecosystems, from dense forests and savannas to lacustrine and riparian systems. This vast expanse, covering a significant portion of the boreal El Chaco system, is a sanctuary for an array of flora and fauna, many of which are found nowhere else on Earth.
