The threats have evolved over time
•Deforestation •Hunting•Agriculture, misuse of fire & pesticides•Oil/gas pipelines next to Reserves•Major highways next to Reserves•New settlements by “Landless”•Trains carrying toxic chemicals within Reserves

Reintroduction: results
From 150 reintroduced zoo-born tamarins, the population now has more than 600 GLTs; 97% of the reintroduced population was born in the wild
No longer possible to monitor all groups and many are completely wild
Human activities continue to be the major cause of loss
among reintroduced monkeys

1st complete census conducted in 1991;Translocation initiated in 1993;
President declares União (3,200 ha) a Biological Reserve in 1997
From 42 translocated tamarins, the total population currently is over 200 golden lion tamarins
25 groups have been monitored long-term

RESULTS: MORE HABITAT PROTECTEDabout 17,000 ha total
Poço das Antas reserve – 6,500 ha
União reserve - 3,200 ha
Rio Vermelho ranch - 1,700 ha
Other reintroduction ranches 4,000 ha

Current and Future Challenges
Introduce landscape consolidation and integration strategy (e.g. implement biodiversity corridors)
Develop & implement GLT Metapopulation Management Plan
Increase capacity within region, including strengthening the GLT NGO (e.g. stabilize funding)
Strengthen relationship with zoos

Capacity building, conservation education, outreach,
social marketing:How do you use your flagship species to
increase awareness, knowledge and skills……… and to change attitudes & behavior??? How do you increase
human capacity in the region??

Where do you focus an education/ outreach program: Schools, the community, policy-
makers? Who is your audience?
