Country: Brasil - Realization: Eco-Atlântica Projeto Muriqui - Director of Photography Guilherme Azevedo
The Ecoatlantic leads a campaign to choose the Muriqui as a mascot for the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, in partnership with the State Environmental Institute (INEA). The campaign intends to present the largest primate in the Americas, create mechanisms to take critical species out of the endangered animals list, and, as an Olympic legacy, work to repopulate a number of forests with Muriqui specimens.
