The Brazilian government created two new protected areas in the state of Rio Grande do Sul : the Alabardão National Park and the Alabardão Enviornmental Protection area (APA) located in the coastal and maritime area of Santa Vitória do Palmar, the southernmost municipality in Brazil, near the Uruguayan frontier and Chuí, bordered by Lagoa Mirim to the west, and featuring attractions like the Farol do Alabardão, Hermenegildo beach, and the historic Port of Santa Vitória.
According to Brasil de Fato, an online newspaper and radio agency headquartered in São Paulo, the initiative with the opening of the two protected areas is the result of two decades of research and work by ecologists, combining biodiversity conservation with the promotion of strategic economic activities in the region.
The initiative created a 558.000 - hectare buffer zone and includes strict fishing bans iof the area protecting endangered dolphins such as the La Plata and Lahille Dolphins and serving as a refuge for various species including birds, sharks, and marine mammals, such as elephants seals and migratory sea lions from Patagonia.
With the creation of these areas, predatory fishing will be eliminated, allowing the recovery of fishing resourcesf beaches for the benefit of local communities.
The new
protected spaces, which will cover more than one million hectares, will also
promote eco - tourism, scientific research and environmental education.
Experts highlight that this project represents a significant advance in the
protection of nature and biodiversity in Brazil, while opening up new development
opportunities for the region.
