Coming soon: a national park at ‘the end of the world’One of the world’s wildest places looks set to stay that way as the Chilean government presses ahead with plans to create a vast new protected area at ‘the end of the world’. The proposed Cape Froward national park will span some 150,000 hectares of subantarctic forests, peatlands and coastline at the southern tip of the Americas. “These are resilient places that maintain balance and create a refuge for species that are in danger of extinction,” Benjamín Caceres of Rewilding Chile told Reuters. When realised, Cape Froward will complete a 2,800km wildlife corridor at the southern tip of Chile, providing a vast protected area for imperilled species. Image: Diego Nahuel for Rewilding Chile
