Abstract:

Peperpot Nature Park in Suriname is a protected area with exceptional biodiversity and is also in close proximity to Paramaribo, the capital of Suriname. As urbanization and land conversion advance, efforts are being made to safeguard the country’s natural resources. Part of this conservation work is led by Dr. Brian O’Shea, who is studying bird populations in the park.
