Puma galore in Patagonia, May 2025

This is an illustrated report of my impressions of the Puma tracking tour in Patagonia, organized by www.wildlifewatchingexpeditions.com and guided by Mark Kaptein and Jillian Groeneveld, who own this small wildlife tour company located in the Netherlands. It was absolutely exhilarating and my best wildlife experience so far.

In the course of my birdwatching explorations in the tropics, I have increasingly become interested in primates and cats that I incidentally encountered. Since recent, mammals and reptiles have become my focus of interest.

    Great report Simon, impressive images as well. Who did you arrange your Chiloe extension with? Enjoyed your company in Oman! Regards.

    Hi John, I arranged my Chiloé extension directly with Tepuhueico Lodge (www.parquetepuheico.com and reservas@tepuheuico.cl). They have outstanding food as well and I’m sure Alley will like it there as well 🙂
