Read our press release announcing partnership with a local agency, Titi Conservation Alliance. The Alliance focuses their conservations efforts to save the endangered mono titi (squirrel) monkey. Ingrid Kuegeman director of the Titi Alliance,
There are approximately 1,500 titi monkeys in the area, of the subspecies Saimiri oerstedii ssp. citrinellus. This subspecies is found only here, on the Central Pacific Coast of Costa Rica. There is another subspecies called Saimiri oerstedii ssp. oerstedii, which is found on Osa Peninsula, and Panama.
Since 2003, (when specific research on monkey numbers began in our area), there has been an increase from 1200 to 1500 Saimiri oerstedii ssp. citrinellus. This small change helped move them from "Critically Endangered" to "Endangered". This shows that our efforts have began to take effect; and we are confident that with more connectivity between monkey troops, their genetics and survival rates will increase.

It is fair to say that Quepos is a bit lesser known than her famous neighbor Manuel Antonio. If you are a party goer and you are mingling amidst all the famous Costa Rican celebs, Manuel Antonio is the all the rage and you just haveto snuggle up next to her. Quepos, on the other hand hit her high life during the early 20th century. Quepos does rely on tourism as it’s main cash crop now and a new marina: www.marinapezvela.comwill change the face of Quepos even more. Quepos morphed into Costa Rica’s official fishing town. Although a shadow of its former bustling United Fruit banana shipping port glory, Quepos has a lot to offer the traveler in search of “off the beaten path” goodies.
