The Mexican government announced the creation of the Jaguar National Park in late 2022, locking in plans to develop a 2,258-hectare natural reserve in northeastern Tulum. The project aims to preserve the country’s natural, cultural, and historical wealth by preventing further urbanization and promoting territorial planning. The park will include the restoration of degraded areas, the development of productive activities, such as bee-keeping, and strategies for the conservation of endemic species, like the jaguar, after which the park is named in honor. It will also create passageways for the local species to circulate freely in a habitual manner.
The new regulation makes it a crime to introduce genetically modified organisms or invasive species, while any destruction of habitats within the protected area will be strictly prohibited. The park is expected to serve as an international benchmark for the conservation of ecological heritage and educate those who live and visit to enjoy and take care of Tulum as a world-renowned ecotourism destination.
