Who we are

Our organization

Founded in 2022, Las Oncas' main purpose is the long term monitoring of jaguars in the Osa Peninsula and the Talamanca Mountain Range in Costa Rica, as well as the protection of their environment. Recognizing the loss of wild spaces in favor of agricultural expansion or urban areas, the urgency of their protection quickly became evident. In order to make a real impact and ensure a better world for future generations, the creation and expansion of our conservation reserve are our primary actions.

Convinced of the importance of making the results of our work visible and accessible, we attach great value on sharing the achievements obtained in the field.

Las Oncas is above all an ambitious and complementary team. Bound by the vocation to protect biodiversity, each member uses their experiences and skills to successfully carry out the initiatives led by the organization.

Our values

Responsibility

The notion of responsibility is closely linked to the constitution of Las Oncas. Convinced that the preservation of the planet and biodiversity is the duty of everyone and is not only charity, our ambition is to convey this vision to as many people as possible.

Creativity

Creativity is the cornerstone of Las Oncas' development. Through the presentation of our actions and the way of establishing connections with new partners, we provide a unique experience that goes beyond traditional sponsorship.

Social inclusion

Our vision of conservation is that it should be open to all and include as many people as possible. Everyone, regardless of their background, can play a significant role in the places where we carry out our conservation actions.

Rigor

As a result, we maintain the highest level of requirements in achieving our goals, executing our actions and choosing the right people to collaborate with.
