Lirio Posted April 23, 2023 #16854 Share Posted April 23, 2023 (edited) Today I visited a conservation area a 1.5-hour drive from Rio de Janeiro to see the Golden Lion tamarin. This an endangered animal that lives only in the woods (Mata Atlantica) of Rio de Janeiro state. By 1970´s, only 200 of them was found in the area. The population was driven to such low amount due to deforestation and hunting. A conservation program was established and now 2,500 individuals can be found in the wild. Due to such increase in the number of Golden Lion tamarin, we can visit the protected area on weekends since mid-2022 (only 60 people each day with guided visit, no free wandering around). This is the first time I have such a lovely encounter. Edited April 23, 2023 by Lirio 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are fortunate that many zoos have breeding programs so that these and other endangered animals can be released back into the wild. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks amazing 🤩.. but as I have said a few times you can't compare a top end restaurant serving maybe 25- 30 covers to silversea with between 300-600 !! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know John Williams the Head chef at the Ritz well. He was previously at Claridges. He is a proper grown up chef. The Ritz dining room is a wonderful place for dinner. The Ritz also has a dinner dance on a Saturday evening that we regularly go to. Edited April 23, 2023 by Mr Luxury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
