Amazon Travel Why go to Manu?
• Amazon Travel Ecotourism and Conservation
Manu is a very rich/ biodiverse but fragile ecosystem. Being home of several endangered species, e.g. Giant Otter, Harpy Eagle, Giant Anteater, Ocelot and Wooly Monkey, ecologically sustainable tourism in Manu is imperative and a low tourism flow is favourable.
Visitors should be informed about rainforest conservation and favorabletourism activities have to be controled ( e.g. don´t get too close to the animals). Ecotourism also is an important economic activity for the inhabitants of the rainforest that permits its use without distroying the rainforest resources.
That´s why it´s very important to involve local people in Manu tourism!

I ordered 1TB backup drive. Here's how it arrived today at my office. Pretty banged up.
A little later: Amazon says they are shipping a replacement and promise to package it better than this.
