In Colombia, connections are everything. Especially when you’re working in some of the world’s most isolated regions. The unique animals that inhabit this richly biodiverse country love remote and inaccessible places as much as rebel groups did. Knowing the locals and working with them has always been a necessity in order to carry out any fieldwork safely. After all, no birder would want to be seen wearing binoculars and camouflage clothing in the middle of a warzone.
