The man who SAVED the source of the Bogotá River
Episode 2: The Lion and the Páramo.
In this episode, we travel to the source of the Bogotá River, the Guacheneque páramo, to learn the story of Vidal León González, the park ranger who for over thirty years has acted not only as its main physical protector but also as the greatest guardian of the last hundred years of oral history of one of Colombia's most important ecosystems. A story of hope like no other.
