- A look into the conservation research that Operation Wallacea carries out in the Iwokrama reserve of Guyana.
Guyana holds one of the largest intact tropical rainforests in the world and with Operation Wallacea, students like myself, can go to this remarkable place, to work with world renown scientists, indigenous people of the region and like minded people to try and protect this wonder.

Guyana really is a beautiful country. Everything about it is diverse and special.
i worked as a forest ranger in different parts of guyana and nothing is as refreshing as waking up to the sounds of the different wildlife in the forest ...my Guyana beautiful and green!
Juley Phillips going to hike in the rainforest for a week, it there a big chance to be attacked by a jaguar?
Настя Мизецкая their is a good chance a jaguar will do you from the behind
@@anastasiamizetska737 how it turn out?
My dad was a forest officer in Guyana, we were lucky to travel all over the country during the August Holidays.I remember waiting in the car at the forestry office in Kingston and the rustle of the pine trees which sound like the seaside. Beautiful.
This is my beloved Guyana

Haters have to keep hating because they are jealous of...my beautiful country Guyana.. Land of many waters.. Also the land with six different races of people.

I agree ! Keep conserving wildlife
Say it LOUDER!!!!
chill with that race thing . America has every single race of people you can find on the planet .
Kenny roberts stop being an ass...no one is jealous. Clearly you never left Guyana and you're small minded
Love from suriname 🇸🇷
Harre krishna. Love Guyana from India
Guyana is such a beautiful country, I haven't been in 26 years and it breaks my heart to see logging going on, to know they built that road from Brasil. Keep Guyana beautiful and pristine, end logging, encourage eco tourism.
francesca romanin logging can’t end, that many people lively hood. They do reforestation to keep the forest alive and growing.
É FÁCIL FALAR ISSO DO CONFORTO DA SUA CASA!
I lived in the Jungle for 3 yrs as a ganja farmer close to Santa Rosa Mission and it was the best experience of my life air so fresh nd clean peaceful
Hello Roxanne, do you have family in Moruka? How come you were living near Santa Rosa Mission? I am half Guyanese myself and have family in that area.
@@louissavage539 I was living in a Rastafari farming community we use to plant ganjah nd other crops

What a beautiful film! My daughter & I were so fortunate to land in the Iwokrama last year. She made friends with the Makushi and continues working with them on a program to produce natural dyes from tree waste at the mill. I'm a nurse working on Water, Sanitation & Hygiene. We love it so much! We can't wait to go back and continue our work.
I love the beautiful sounds of the birds, insects etc.
I hope they continue with conservation of this wonderful place.
I love my memories of beautiful Tropical Guyana. Thanks for production. Greetings from Limerick city Ireland
Hello my mother is guyanese & my father originates from Limerick , we are both blessed to have experienced this beautiful area of the world:)
@@normajeanbell2695 thank you very much. Greetings from James J Walsh
GT, my home town Beautiful Land.
Reminds me of the time that I spent in this rain forest from 1979 to 1983. Are used to live in Kwakwani on the Berbice river I love this forest and I am so happy to see that the government of Guyana is thinking in terms of protecting it and using informed tourism as a way of earning an income while keeping the forest in tact stop. I hope that Guyana and this forest does not go the way of the forests in Brazil
FLORESTA É PRA SER EXPLORADA!
EIS POR QUE A GUIANA É UM DOS PAÍSES MAIS POBRES DO MUNDO!
Public comments. Guyana is such a beautiful country with lots of food and fresh vegetables and fruits and sugar and fish plus oils and gas .many wonderful place to see and enjoy . Guyanese people need a proper leader with a vision and plan to manage and maintain the country effectively.ppp Civic administration is the best way forward for all Guyanese people to live love and enjoy life .
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 don't stop the progress.
I have lived in Guyana for 12 years. I am very fortunate in the country. I ask the Guyana government to protect the country’s original ecology and develop a good economy to make the national life better.
Hello Alex, I would like to know if in Guyana speak english, im from Perú
Public comment. Very beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing this amazing country. Great video.
☺️It's a beautiful country like any other country when explored.👍
Excellent documentary. It highlights the importance of nature and conservation, but also tells you how people are working to preserve the ecosystem and wildlife. This was also very well shot, directed, and edited, with nice music as well. I'm better for having watched this.
Plz Guyana 🇬🇾 my home in peace ✌️
Guyana rainforest and jungle in the interior are a beautiful place
My beautiful country Guyana I love my country. From NY
Im from indonesia 2 year work in guyana ,logging opertion tolsie compeny
Beautiful Guyana land of many waters
Blessed nation 🙏💙 God love upon our Life 🙏💞
Beautiful documentry...Thanks for showcasing my beautiful country Guyana.
Fun fact: A popular tree growing in the Guyanese forests is known as greenheart, named after its colour. It's so tough you can use it for a variety of marine uses where the water and marine borers would ruin others types of tree.
I hope the Politicians don’t use the Oil Revenues to Destroy the Beautiful rain Forest ....
J Merry Guyana will become the next biggest oil producer
It's inevitable....I fear. Humans never seem to learn from history unless it's to exploit better.
They will they already started since 2006
I was born there I would know
J Merry if u haven’t noticed humans are like viruses the main goal is to survive and reproduce
Love this video
I’m from Guyana ❤️
I would like to speak English like you,
Thank you Ben , Your video is informative. Love your researches. Guyana is truly diversed in population as well as natural resources. I love it that you promote sustainability and protection of our prestine rainforest. I am very pleased the local communities are continuing to preserve and protect Guyana rainforest. Your video is as beautiful as the country Thank you
Nice video. Thumbs up for you
This is very inspiring. The World needs more Operation Wallacea to protect and study rainforests and it's inhabitants. Keep it wild. Keep it living.....Thank You for posting, Thank You for posting such a great model here..
Nice, enjoyed it.
Fantastic film!@
The birds are so happy there!
No hawks kill a thousand a month
Survival
I hope this research is for good thing's.not to bring unknown sickness,
Guyana is really green and beautiful by nature.
God bless.
Beautiful video lots to learn about our rain forest,
Lovely video
Gorgeous birds!
Very good filmwork. Superb content as well.
Love to eat alligator.... From Guyana.... And iguanas....
Me too
Caiman there's no alligators in Guyana
I want to visit Guyana so much it hurts. Thank you for your video.
This is my beautiful birth place. I lived in this wonderful Country call Guyana for 14 years and was heart broken to leave but we had no choice because back in 1985 it was a dictatorship run country.
my country booiiii
Awesome video 👏🏼
Very nice and informative 👍🏾
Nice job
Thanks.
This a fantastic documentation of the tropical rainforest in central Guyana (Guiana shild craton). I want to see more so a decide to subscribe your channel. Top !!!
excelente....
Very Informative. I call on the President to make more forest available for conservation in every region that has forest. And thats not all every year the President should extend the range of these protected areas even larger than before. Eventually the forest would be entirely protected...but this might sound too unrealistic? Fellow Guyanese lets conserve our forest . Foreign expatriates with intentions to log and to mine...please stay away!!!!!!!Heartfelt thanks go to Norway for its initiative to getting Guyana to keep its forest.

Hey sir. Agreed. You should come up here to visit some time.
Being a Guyana native, I've never seen so many different companies and researchers actually in Guyana as there are currently. I cannot be optimistic about this because as history has proven, once your resources are exposed, everyone will invade to make a profit. Mark my words.
Public comments. It is important to protect the environment and forestry by re planting green heart trees and other 🌴 which will definitely help global warming and pollution control. Please save the forest now. Thanks you so much.
There is no plan in sight to deforestation when you have oil!
FABULOSO
Because of my lack of education about the jungle I was always deeply afraid of it. I think with education about the jungle a lot more Guyanese would love it and embrace it. I strongly believe various levels of subjects should be taught in Primary and High School about our Rain Forest.
Born and raised
Miss my home 😔🙏
Who watching from Guyana??
Nice
I would love to be a part of this
Which year was iWork.... Set aside? That must have been an immense achievement.
The exploitation usually comes from the so called developed countries. They have a knack for telling developing countries how to run their affairs .
This is an old story isn't it. They come to "help" and to "document" next thing you know the good work that the people do on the ground is taken over by their countries politians and the next thing you know Guyana has been taken over because the politians and the 1% can't resist the money.
We just struck goal in 13 different cities and Guyana so we good
Let's see what this looks like in 10 years.
I haven’t been home since 1989. I know it has changed a lot since I was there last. My hope is that they will not colonize this country like so many other places because whenever you have people from the outside going into these countries things get disrupted, damaged, changed, they take over and they destroy the natural base of the place.
Leave our rainforest alone leave the wildlife. We understand how to preserve wildlife that's why we live on the cost leave Guyana alone.
Thank goodness for Norway's " protection money! , or some of that beautiful places would've been gone!
how to get there FROM Warsaw, Poland?
Just book a flight bro
I am from Guyana and going out there in October. Come if you are serious +905348265849

lloyd mitchell says
looking at this documentary i remember where i saw a jaguar
while resting midway between macapa and sao jorge d loyapoque
a capybarra entered the corn field of a farmer . he shot it . later that night
a jaguar was attracted by the smell the farmer heard him went out and shot
him. in the morning he went down to the creek to clean the carcasses .a caiman
attracted by the smell got too close .the man killed it with his machete
the three were eaten .i only ate capybarra
Are ya'll replenishing the precious green hart ect.ect.forestry...

You've got to look at and study it at the small picture first to understand the bigger picture
(Meaning the small picture as the Amazonian rainforest in it's entirety)
There is always going to be one or certain groups that is going to try to escape the area because they didn't like snakes so they fled to Israel and Europe and so on Now you have a lot more of them racing for space
''Jesus in the garden tempted by satan'' scene..haha
Pls leave our Guyana alone the rest of the world I’d beings destroyed buy human now you found about Guyana you will destroy it too no pls leave us alone we struggle all of our with no one to help leave our Guyana alone pls
Leave that Paradise alone!
90 % guyenese has never been here its a part of the guyenese heritage that's only heard of but never seen. this place is like the area 51 in guyana.
But Paradise 🇬🇾
You kill the bettles !! Find another way
What about the rest of the documentary ? Some people are never happy. The few bugs they kill for research are just a drop in the ocean of this rainforest.
@@jameswalsh2427 this guy must be smoking some bad shit...lol
@@davidsingh5673 i would say he is just smoking "shit"
Who tf are they to come into someone else’s country and KILL anything?
Goes to try to help the rainforest and endangers multiple species..trapping the birds, killing the Beatles. The animals are probably like wtf is going on with all these manmade objects everywhere.
If the rain forests are so precious to the biodiversity of the plant then why don't you the West pay the Guyanese people a percentage of income for preserving and keep this previous resource un touched as it is because the people of Guyana are poor while the West keeps getting richer and richer causing more and environmental issues across the plant, Guyanese people are left with the crumbs. If I had my way I would give the world an ultimatum either you pay us a subsidy/income for keeping this rain forest natural and untouched or we are going to go in and flatten it and develop it,
because sooner or later someone will have to pay. The West should be paying all third world countries that have these natural forests as part of their country, an income for the preservation of these natural habitats don't you think? Well you might say they don't have to do anything, that's the point they have not developed this habitat for the sake of the plant.
Essequibo belong to Venezuela
Back in Gran coloumbia days....a really really long time ago!
That's a lie 18 wow
Leave it alone, you will always ruin it like you type always do.
All those lives lost vector ignorance and charity
the Esequibo is and will be from Venezuela forever
Sit on a fat one and rotate. David Romero.
Gavin Scott 😂😂😂😂😂
Guyana lost land to Venezuela in 1905 cause of British Guyana! Gran coloumbia days are over! 🇬🇾
Stop logging period. We have a population problem. Stop destroying what's left. Eventually there won't be anything left and then what?
Guyana is the Venezuela
Whatever
Ya mad yute
The Gran Colombia days are over! Stop your noise!
