The objective of the Custody agreement is to maintain, through social participation, actions for the conservation and recovery of biodiversity beyond the completion of the LIFE + Ripisilvanatura project, which has been working on the recovery of the riparian forest and on the control of Exotic Invasive Species in that stretch of the Segura River.

In this sense, ANSE and the Sanctuary plans to carry out a first activity of placing shelters for bats next Saturday, September 1 at 9:30 in the parking lot of the Sanctuary.
