Until the end of the year, it can be visited in the Orangery of the Palacio de Cristal de Arganzuela.

The Director of Natural Environment and Forest Policy of the Ministry of the Environment and Rural and Marine Affairs (MARM), José Jiménez, participated, on October 19, in the inauguration of the exhibition “The writing of animals”, which stops until the end of December in Madrid, specifically in the Greenhouse of the Palacio de Cristal de Arganzuela (Paseo de la Chopera, 10).

As part of the celebrations for the International Year of Biodiversity, the Biodiversity Foundation has been presenting this exhibition in different locations throughout Spain, which had begun its journey in 2006 at the Foundation’s headquarters in Seville, and of which a support book has been published.

It is a travelling exhibition that aims to communicate the concepts of biodiversity and ecosystem, as well as the need to conserve each species and each space, using, for this purpose, the language of nature itself: the signs of life.

Joaquín Araujo, popularizer and naturalist, is the curator of “The Writing of Animals”, which seeks to bring the public closer to the diversity of the ecosystems of the Iberian Peninsula, and to do so he proposes to interpret the footprints and signs that animals leave in their wake.

Whoever visits it will find an exhibition that is structured in five large spatial areas: a first, called ‘We are not alone’; three dedicated to the ecosystems of the Iberian Peninsula and a fifth, on endangered species.
