Testimonials

"Con Cashu empezó mi descubrimiento de la vida en la naturaleza y no la cambio por nada del mundo. Extraño bastante este lugar, a su gente, las noches de happy hour, las noches de películas, las caminatas, el intercambio de culturas, la naturaleza virgen alrededor. Cashu es un lugar único, así como lo que se puede aprender porque hay mucho que aprender ahí. Si la gente conociera mas lugares como Cocha Cashu, la conservación de la naturaleza no sería un tarea solo de algunos sino un compromiso de todos porque sabrían lo que la naturaleza vale. Gracias Cocha Cashu por dejarme conocerte.”

Lizzy Kanashiro Diaz
“I was at Cocha Cashu in 1989 or 1990 with a team working on a manakin project.   I would have to consider it one of the best experiences of my career in biology. Cocha Cashu was a paradise. The bird and animal life was spectacular, and I loved the time spent on the lake and river especially when the otters were around, and swimming in the same waters as the caiman. It was a great opportunity to work with Peruvian students. Visiting with the local natives was another highlight. Because many other scientists were there doing other projects, there was a good opportunity to participate in other activities - bat mistnetting, botany projects, etc. I would encourage anyone who has the chance to take the opportunity to spend some time there.”
