Hello iNaturalist Community!

We are the San Ignacio del Huinay Foundation, founded in 1998 by the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso (PUCV) and Enel Generación Chile. Since then, we have been dedicated to the study and conservation of the pristine and unique aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems of the Chilean Patagonian fjords. Located in the amazing Comau Fjord, we have amassed over 20-years of observation and are thrilled to join all of you in capturing and sharing the biodiversity that thrives in this special corner of the world!

We’re passionate about citizen science and open science. With your help and the community’s, we believe we can discover even more about the nature around us. We’re excited and happy to share our observations and learn together as we continue to protect this beautiful place!
