The reserve protects the upper basin of the Koppenaam River and the headwaters of the Lucy, Oster, Zuide, Salamachi and Granrio rivers, and covers a range of terrains and ecosystems that have significant conservation value due to their pristine state. The reserve's mountain and lowland forest flora is extremely diverse, with more than 5,000 vascular plant species collected to date. The reserve's fauna is typical of the region and includes jaguars, giant armadillos, giant otters, tapirs, sloths, eight species of primates and 400 bird species, such as the harpy eagle, the Guiana cockatoo and the vermilion macaw.
Chiribiquete National Park – “The Maloca of the Jaguar”
Chiribiquete National Park is the largest protected area in Colombia and is the meeting point of four biogeographic provinces: Orinoco, Guiana, Amazonas and Northern Andes. The National Park therefore guarantees the connectivity and preservation of the biodiversity of these provinces, constituting an interactive scene where the diversity and endemism of flora and fauna flourish. One of the characteristics of Chiribiquete is the presence of tepuis (table-top mountains), steep sandstone plateaus that stand out from the forest, creating a spectacular landscape enhanced by their remoteness, inaccessibility and excellent conservation. Indigenous peoples carved more than 75,000 statues on the walls of 60 rock shelters dating back to 20,000 BC, and they are still being produced today by the original peoples under the protection of the National Park. These murals depict hunting scenes, wars, dances and rituals, as well as species of flora and fauna, and especially the worship of the jaguar, a symbol of strength and fertility. The indigenous communities do not live directly on the site, and they believe that Chiribiquete is a sacred place that cannot be visited and should be left as it is.
