Places We Work
Maya Mountain Marine Corridor This million-acre stretch of protected areas in southern Belize extends from the crest of the Maya Mountains to the Caribbean Sea. The corridor is composed of a number of protected areas, including Bladen Nature Reserve, Maya Mountain Forest Reserve, Payne's Creek National Park, Port Honduras Marine Reserve and Sapodilla Cayes Marine Reserve.
Meso-American Reef The largest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere, the Meso-American Reef extends from Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula along the entire coast of Belize and into parts of Guatemala and Honduras. In Belize, Conservancy scientists have identified more than 13 spawning aggregation sites of endangered reef fish.
Maya Forest Covering Mexico's southern Yucatán Peninsula and stretching into Belize and Guatemala, the Maya Forest's more than six million acres of lowland jungle form the largest contiguous forested area in Mexico and Central America. This region also harbors numerous Mayan ruins and endangered species, such as the jaguar and scarlet macaw. |
