Ep. 1 Salvando el urogallo | Guardianes del campo (Mutuasport)

Guardians of the Countryside | Episode 1: Bielsa – The Hunters Fighting to Save the Capercaillie In the heart of the Aragonese Pyrenees, amidst ancient forests and imposing mountains, a silent battle is being waged for the survival of one of the most emblematic species of our fauna: the Pyrenean capercaillie. In this first episode of Guardians of the Countryside – Mutuasport, we travel to Bielsa to discover how a hunting society has gone from being a traditional hunting organization to becoming a key player in the conservation of an endangered species. Through collaborative work with scientists, government agencies, and conservation organizations, the hunters participate in habitat restoration projects, scientific monitoring, and land management, demonstrating that responsible hunting can also be a fundamental tool for biodiversity conservation. This episode showcases the genuine commitment of those who live in the mountains year-round: restoring forests, collaborating with science, and educating new generations about the importance of protecting the natural environment. A story of effort, tradition, and future that demonstrates that the true guardians of the countryside are those who know, respect, and protect it. 🎬 A conservation story 🏔️ A mountain story 🌿 A story of commitment to nature Welcome to Guardians of the Countryside.
