Testimonials

“This is my very favorite place on the planet. Not that I've seen them all by any means. But still, it will remain on top no matter what. I feel so very fortunate to know Cashu intimately. May it stay wild and pure forever.”

Melisse Reichman
“Cocha Cashu literally changed my life. As a Princeton graduate student with John Terborgh in the mid-1970s I helped cut and map the original trails, set the original mist-net lines for bird studies, and began to document the area's extraordinary bird and mammal diversity. I became a tropical ecologist and a passionate conservation scientist while striving to untangle the many hundreds of parts that make up Cashu's orchestral dawn choruses, and carefully measuring how eighty (80!) species of Tyrant Flycatchers make their living together at one place. I woke up each day mesmerized by the spiritual chants of Red Howler Monkeys, and closed my weary eyes most nights to the mournful whistles of tinamous and potoos. Cocha Cashu and the Manu National Park provide scientists the singular chance to study pristine American tropics squarely at the epicenter of the greatest diversity of biological life on planet Earth. Nobody who is lucky enough to work, or even visit, this amazing place will ever walk away untouched by its towering riches, nor unmoved by its timeless call to the deepest places in our human soul.”
