Mining standing in front of a caranchera (semi-mechanized mining equipment including motor and pump, sluice box, carpeted ramp for capturing gold flakes). During the dry season (especially July-September) it is common to see smoke along beaches, where felled trees and gathered driftwood (locally referred to as palizada) incinerated to make space for mining sites.

Spider monkey, locally called maquisapa. ‘Maki’ means ‘hand’ in Quechua, sapa is the suffix for magnitude. Of the nearly dozen sympatric species in this region, Maquisapas are preferred by hunters because they are larger-bodied primates and thus provide a voluminous amount of meat. Recent conversations with conservation workers over meals has spurred me to develop interview questions to systematically ask questions about whether they continue to eat meat of wild animals after pursuing work in biodiversity conservation.
