Laguna Amarga
Laguna Amarga is one of the best places on earth to observe pumas in the wild. Nowhere else the population density is as high as on this Ranch. Previously it was common practice for the land owners to hunt pumas, in order to avoid that those kill their sheep. Now however, there has grown a new generation on the Estancias, advocating for a tolerant cooperation. Now you can watch the pumas in their natural habitat while on the same Estancia there is being practiced livestock farming, whereupon the sheep are being guarded by livestock guardian dogs, so that they don’t fall prey to the pumas.
