Association for Conservation of the Tropics is pleased to announce its summer 2011 field courses in tropical biology. The courses are intended for undergraduates or early graduate level students who have a keen interest in tropical biology and conservation, but have little or no experience of working in a tropical environment. <span style=""> </span>Participants may enroll on either a credit or non-credit basis. <o:p style=""></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12pt;"><span style=""><o:p style=""> </o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12pt;"><span style="">Courses will be held in Costa Rica?s spectacular Osa Peninsula. As one of the largest tracts of rain forest north of the Amazon, this area is renowned for high animal and plant diversity. It is one of only a few places in Costa Rica that has jaguar, puma, sea turtles and four species of monkey (mantled howler monkey, black-handed spider monkey, white-faced capuchin and squirrel monkey). It is also home to nearly 4,000 plant species, including trees more than 200 feet tall. All students participating in our programs will have opportunity to be involved in applied conservation and community service.<o:p style=""></o:p></span></div>
