Hi all,

I have the opportunity to be involved in a 3000 hectare tropical wetland reserve project. The wetland was envisioned by our government as a gift to the nation and future generations and to make it financially self-sustaining, various commercial activities were started. This include chalets, attractions include zones where imported animals and fish like hypos, araipaima,etc were exhibited in a natural setting. These efforts failed (why go to a wetlands to see animals when you can go to a zoo?).
Can members of this group help me with some ideas, a wish-list perhaps, if you were given the opportunity? A seed-bank? A biodiversity showcase?

Any and all ideas welcomed. It is for a good cause ( if this latest effort fails, there is a danger it may be commercialised).

Thanks and regards

HS
