JBL expedition team returns from Peru with exciting information

When 36 nature enthusiasts travel together through the jungle and the Andes, spectacular results sometimes emerge: poison dart frogs that avoid regions just 50 metres lower down, the world's first underwater images of the biotopes in Lake Titicaca, suckerfish in the Urubamba River near the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Machu Picchu, where NO ONE had ever noticed fish in the 19 °C cold water, and consistent water analyses in all the biotopes visited.

Sixteen days of research and intense experiences in nature. Instead of a beautiful lodge, there was sometimes a tent on a sandbank, in the middle of nowhere in the Peruvian Amazon. But that is precisely what makes a JBL expedition so appealing: spending time in places where no one except fish and crustacean enthusiasts would voluntarily go. Time to snorkel, observe fish in their habitats, determine all water values and even catch fish to identify them at leisure in the photo aquarium.

Incidentally, cultural highlights such as the ruins of Machu Picchu, the 5,000-metre-high Rainbow Mountains and, to round off the trip, the unique Lake Titicaca were also on the agenda.
