The Kampankis Mountains are a knife-thin ridge in northern Peru that rises 1,435 meters above the surrounding Amazon lowlands. For three weeks, a group of researchers explored both the biological diversity and cultural values of the Cerros de Kampankis landscape, with the aim of promoting the long-term conservation of the area by the local Awajun and Wampis indigenous peoples. Field Museum and Peruvian scientists recorded over 1,700 species of plants, fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals, including twenty-five species that appear to be new to science. The report is presented in Spanish and English, and includes conservation recommendations, a technical report on the biological and social findings, appendices, and an executive summary in Wampis and Awajun.

In October 2012, an international and multidisciplinary team of experts conducted a rapid social and biological inventory of the Ere, Campuya, and Algodon watersheds of northern Amazonian Peru. Team members working on the social inventory studied the connections between local communities and their natural surroundings, while team members working on the biological inventory surveyed geology, plants, fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals at three wilderness sites. Based on these studies, the team and its local partners drew up a detailed series of recommendations for sustaining healthy towns and forests in the area. This volume contains the team's full report and results in both Spanish and English, as well as overviews in Murui and Kichwa.
