Wildlife Corridors: Paraguay has joined a four-country effort to protect jaguars. Separate tracking research using data from 99 jaguars found that some mapped routes may be lost, while other potential corridors remain to be identified. Forest Pressure: Agriculture, especially cattle ranching and soy, is linked to major forest loss across the Gran Chaco, shared by Paraguay, Argentina and Bolivia; the region lost 10.8 million hectares of native forest over two decades. River Health: The invasive golden mussel, first detected in Argentina in 1991, has spread through South American river basins, raising concerns about its effects on freshwater ecosystems.
