01 · Why it Exists

The story begins with the Golden Lion.

This is the entry point into Tamaruva’s Atlantic Forest story. It begins in Rio and reaches the Golden Lion Tamarin through the AMLD field context, with the day framed by a private Host and chauffeur service. It is for guests who want a concise but meaningful introduction without the commitment of a longer expedition.

AMLD / Silva Jardim

The Golden Lion Tamarin field chapter, with AMLD researchers in the approved field context. Radio-monitored and historically highly reliable — never promised as certain.

Fazenda dos Cordeiros

The approved lowland base that follows the AMLD chapter — farm-to-table lunch on the Encounter, overnight base on the longer journeys.

Wildlife is living nature and is never guaranteed. AMLD field observation is radio-monitored and historically highly reliable, but no sighting is promised. The Northern Muriqui in Itatiaia is a specialist-led attempt, never a promise.
