  • Amazon protection is entangled with criminal threats on the ground

    Rosolie connects conservation with cartels, traffickers, and assassination attempts, not only wildlife encounters. That framing shows why protecting a forest isn't simply buying land or celebrating biodiversity. Local security, enforcement, and the rights of people living there shape whether conservation work can last.
