The jaguar is considered endangered in Argentina, but in the Gran Chaco, one of four areas in the country where the species still survives, it’s listed as critically endangered.

Dwarfed by its more prestigious sibling, the Amazon, South America's second largest forest is a little-known victim of 25 years of gradual invasion by agriculture.

Work is under way on a transnational highway through the Gran Chaco, a unique ecosystem in South America.

Paraguay wants the Chaco because the district is larger than the rest of their country and its jungles contain great growths of the quebracho tree, whose bark yields 30% tannin.

A complaint lodged with the government alleges that Argentine provincial officials and businessmen are profiting from clearing the native forest.

The Chaco Vivo project consists of almost 200,000 hectares of continuous Chaco forest, which means the project is six times larger than any previous or current REDD+ initiative in the country.
