"La Fundación Rewilding Argentina commemorated the 19th anniversary of the
giant anteater reintroduction program in the Iberá Wetlands. The species,
locally known as yurumí, had disappeared from Corrientes in the mid-20th
century due to poaching, fires, and habitat degradation.
Initiated in 2007 alongside the provincial government and Tompkins
Conservation, the project became the world’s first giant anteater
reintroduction program, successfully rescuing over 110 orphaned individuals or
those from civilian alerts and releasing them in Iberá Park."
