Por casualidad, ¿alguien está interesado en participar como voluntario en actividades relacionadas con la conservación en una zona urbana? Estoy buscando gente con ganas de generar impacto, no recibirás equipamiento ni paga, tendrás que aportar tu propia comida y transporte (no será demasiado alto, habrá transporte en autobús y refrigerios. Si es necesario, puedo dar el costo del autobús, pero no creo que pueda cubrir la comida).
