About Bosque Moyán-Palacio
Bosque Moyán-Palacio Regional Conservation Area protects 8,458 hectares of hill and mountain dry forests in the districts of Motupe and Salas in Lambayeque, conserving habitat for the critically endangered white-winged guan and representative dry forest ecosystems of the Lambayeque hills. Established alongside Bosque Huacrupe-La Calera in June 2011, it protects a transitional zone between coastal lowland dry forest and Andean foothills where the white-winged guan was rediscovered in the 1970s after being thought extinct. The ACR supports community-based ecotourism as a sustainable development alternative.
