Giant Otter Conservation
BBC Wildlife Magazine, June 2005 by Charles Munn

Victor Emanuel visits the Napo Wildlife Center
January 2005

Mr. Emanuel gave Napo Wildlife Center high praise: "The Napo Wildlife Center is, by far, the best lodge in Ecuador, both in terms of the quality of the birding and wildlife experiences and the quality of the accommodations, food, and service. Anyone who goes to one of the other lodges on the Napo will have an inferior experience compared to the one we had."

"The Bicycle Diaries"
Conde Nast Traveler, September 2004 by Joe Kane

Our destination, tucked subtly into the cloud forest: the Cock-of-the-Rock Lodge. The lodge comprises ten simple but comfortable wooden cabins on stilts, with tiled bathrooms and hot showers, and a dining hall open to the forest. I counted five kinds of hummingbird at the window feeder, and three capuchin monkeys joined us after lunch. A nonprofit corporation built the lodge specifically for birders (a portion of the proceeds supports park conservation).

"Ecotourism Destinations That Go The Extra Mile - A Real Trip"
E: The Environmental Magazine, July-August, 2002

If you’ve ever wanted to try an eco-tour, this is the year to get up and get out. Never has there been a better opportunity to see nature up-close and personal while also giving something back to the communities you visit. This is not a “Best Of” list—there are far too many wonderful places for that—but simply a listing of ecotourist operations that are making outstanding efforts to leave a smaller footprint and ensure protected areas remain secure. TROPICAL NATURE TRAVEL, SOUTH AMERICA. The U.S. arm of the Tropical Nature system of conservation organizations in Peru (InkaNatura, Selva Sur and Peru Verde), Brazil (Bio-Brasil Foundation) and Ecuador (Eco-Ecuador), Tropical Nature Travel conducts birding, cultural and natural history tours to its own Amazon rainforest lodges.



"Unlocking the Amazon"
Conde Nast Traveler, December 2002 by Joe Kane
Tropical Nature Lodges: "The Best the Jungle Can Be"
Mr. Kane chose lodges that represent the “best of what ecotourism can offer.” His top pick in Peru, Manu Wildlife Center, is typical of the kind of experience that lodges in the Tropical Nature conservation system provide. Sandoval Lake Lodge, a second pick, stands out for its “great food and relatively easy access…but more especially for its setting on high bluffs overlooking a spectacular oxbow lake, and for its wildlife, which includes giant river otters, red-bellied macaws, five species of monkey, and dense concentrations of birds and butterflies.”
