ORGANIZATION'S MISSION IN COSTA RICAThe organization's mission centers around the Area de Conservacion Guanacaste (ACG)--120,000 terrestrial hectares and 43,000 marine hectares of permanently conserved, government-owned and managed wildlands in northwestern Costa Rica. ACG began in 1971 as the 10,400 hectare Parque Nacional Santa Rosa, a national monument and tropical dry forest national park. Expansion of this conservation unit began in 1986 with the goal of restoring and conserving an entire tropical dry forest ecosystem. It contains about 235,000 species in its dry forest, cloud forest and rain forest ecosystems. This is roughly 2.4% of the world's terrestrial biodiversity and 60% of the species that occur in Costa Rica. guanacaste dry forest conservation fund's mission is to restore and protect this critcal area of tropical dry forest, through the acquisition of additional lands being converted to agricultural and other uses, in order to:1) provide the areas required for the large vertebrates that live in the ACG, such as tapirs, jaguars, and mountain lions to maintain a healthy breeding population. 2) to protect migration routes and refuge habitat. 3) to dilute the impact from research, educational and other uses of the land.The ACG is a fully functional decentralised governmental unit with a management endowment, about 100 professional Costa Rican resident staff members, and programs in education, research, tourism, reforestation, biodiversity development, fire control, police protection, and facilities. Operating costs are met by income from the endowment, supplemented by income from environmental goods and services, and government subsidy. GUANACASTE DRY FOREST CONSERVATION FUND IS ACQUIRING ADDITIONAL LAND TO ADD TO THE ACG holdings, in order TO MEET THE ABOVE GOALS, GDFCF IS ALSO HELPING TO FUND THE ACG'S operations, RESEARCH AND EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES THROUGH ADDITIONAL EXPENDITURES OF ITS OWN. GDFCF IS LEADING THE EFFORT TO CATALOGUE ALL OF THE SPECIES IN THE ACG THROUGH A BIODIVERSITY INVENTORY USING DNA BARCODING..
