The Alturas animal refuge works for the protection, conservation and rehabilitación of numerous animal species. All you need to do is organize guided visits that are very informative to understand better the costarric wildlife, the problems that encroach on the animals and the good ones allowed to adopt for the preservation of the species.
An educational visit and a good action in favor of the animals and a donation for the visit allows the refuge to function and meet the needs of the animals we care for.
