Action Cock-of-the-rock: the formation of a committee for observation and action in the field

The setting up of a joint action plan for the Guianan Cock-of-the-rock began with bilateral meetings with the Company of Guides, the ONF and mineral companies in the course of which the association introduced the programme Life+ Cap DOM and more precisely its action plan to help the Guianan Cock-of-the-rock.
