Chile to Create Epic 2,800km "Wildlife Corridor" with New National Park

Chile's government is set to establish its 47th national park. The new Cape Froward park will protect nearly 200,000 hectares of remote Patagonian wilderness. This action will complete a continuous 2,800-kilometer chain of protected lands. This chain is known as a "wildlife corridor." It allows animals to roam freely from the new park all the way to South America's southern tip. The area features a rugged coastline and forested valleys. It is described by those who know it as "the wildest place." The region holds great biodiversity and a long history of human presence. The official designation will permanently safeguard this pristine area for future generations.
