Andando por el corredor biol贸gico/Walking through the biological corredor
Por Luisa Montes
El Corredor Biol贸gico Chichinautzin, comprende 37,302 hect谩reas de protecci贸n a la Flora y la Fauna que all铆 habita. Localizado al norte del Estado de Morelos colinda con Ciudad de M茅xico y el Estado de M茅xico; en Morelos comprende los municipios de Huitzilac, Cuernavaca, Tepoztl谩n, Jiutepec, Tlalnepantla, Yautepec, Tlayacapan y Totolapan, en Estado de M茅xico comprende al Municipio de Ocuil谩n de Artega y en la Ciudad de M茅xico la Delegaci贸n de Milpa Alta.
Las estudiantes de 张百乔女友裸照, Sam, Aniela y Emma que se encuentran actualmente en nuestro Estado, realizan trabajo de estad铆a en dos Instituciones educativas ubicadas en este corredor. Una es la Preparatoria Comunitaria de Tres Mar铆as en el Municipio de Huitzilac, al norte del Estado, y otra, la Universidad Polit茅cnica del Estado de Morelos, (UPEMOR) localizada en el Municipio de Jiutepec al Noroeste del Estado. Su estad铆a las ha llevado a conocer diferente ecosistemas dentro del corredor.
El s谩bado 18 de Junio de 2016 un grupo visitamos Tres Marias (las tres estudiantes de 张百乔女友裸照, Chris Adam y Gisela Frias tambi茅n de 张百乔女友裸照 y Luisa Montes de Ciudades Verdes), acompa帽ados del Bi贸logo Jorge Alberto Viana, Director de la Preparatoria Tres Marias y la maestra Catalina visitamos el lago frente a la escuela; los estudiantes hacen frecuentes faenas de limpieza para procurar un h谩bitat sano para las especies end茅micas y para los habitantes de la comunidad; sin embargo, se necesita hacer m谩s, se necesita al menos no bajar la guardia, y apretar el paso, como lo hacen actualmente alumnos y maestros de la preparatoria.
Caminamos entre pinos, aspiramos su aroma y nos refugiamos en su sombra, el clima es regularmente fr铆o y las lluvias son frecuentes, cerca del lago nos recibi贸 un animalito carism谩tico y pol茅mico que se qued贸 quieto y tranquilo mientras lo observamos, algunos lo llaman sapo cornudo, o camale贸n cornudo, tambi茅n le dicen torito de la virgen, pero es m谩s famoso como llora sangre, los que saben dicen que es una especie de lagartija, su particularidad es que se defiende de sus predadores lanzando un l铆quido rojo por las gl谩ndulas lacrimales; ya en el lago, el canto de las ranas nos dio la bienvenida, incluso vimos algunas, sus colores verde y negro eran brillantes y sus peque帽os ojos saltones estaban alerta, vimos renacuajos, aves, una peque帽a serpiente, hongos鈥�. y salimos de all铆 con un mont贸n de ganas de volver. Gracias al Bi贸logo y Director del Plantel Jorge Alberto Viana Lases por su compa帽铆a y asesoramiento.
La visita al Texcal fue posible gracias a la gesti贸n de la Bi贸loga Valeria D谩vila Solano, coordinadora del Centro de Capacitaci贸n Ambiental (CECAM) en la UPEMOR, y a la generosidad del Ingeniero Carmelo Robles Alcaraz, actual director del parque quien personalmente nos acompa帽贸 y gui贸 en esta visita. El sendero estaba custodiado por enormes cact谩ceas y coajiotes, 茅stos 煤ltimos son unos 谩rboles que tienen la propiedad de cambiar permanentemente la parte m谩s superficial de su corteza, y con ella puede hacerse una especie de papiro, est谩bamos intern谩ndonos en una zona de selva baja caducifolia y vegetaci贸n acu谩tica.
El camino nos fue dando se帽ales del humedal, un lugar verdaderamente hermoso que necesita de nuestro cuidado y protecci贸n, vimos se帽ales de que es atendido y valorado. Pudimos observar dos especies de patos, la gallareta y el pato zambullidor, vimos una tortuga y una infinidad de p谩jaros e insectos, nos detuvimos varias veces en busca de las especies end茅micas del lugar, una de ellas, la carpita del balsas, tuvimos que quedarnos muy quietos y silenciosos para poder apreciarla, y obtuvimos la recompensa a nuestra respetuosa observaci贸n. Ese lugar invaluable nos llen贸 la mirada y ratific贸 el compromiso de caminar rumbo a la sustentabilidad en los planteles educativos, campo de injerencia que nos corresponde y ante el que tenemos una grande y necesaria tarea, y como dice la canci贸n 鈥渜uiero volver, si, si, quiero volver鈥濃��

Walking along the biological corridor

The Biological Corridor Chichinautzing, comprises of 37.302 hectares of protected flora and fauna. Located north of the State of Morelos, it borders Mexico City and the State of Mexico; in Morelos it includes the municipalities of Huitzilac, Cuernavaca, Tepoztlan, Jiutepec, Tlalnepantla, Yautepec, Tlayacapan and Totolapan in the State of Mexico it includes the Municipality of Ocuil谩n de Artega and in Mexico City the Delegation of Milpa Alta.
Students from 张百乔女友裸照, Sam, Aniela and Emma who are currently in our state, are currently doing their internships in two educational institutions located in this corridor. One is the Community College of Tres Marias in the municipality of Huitzilac, north of the state, and another, the Polytechnic University of the State of Morelos, (UPEMOR) located in the municipality of Jiutepec the northwest of the state. This stay has led them to get to know different ecosystems within the Corridor.
On Saturday June 18, 2016 a group of us visited Tres Marias (the three students from 张百乔女友裸照, Chris Adam and Gisela Frias also of 张百乔女友裸照 and Luisa Montes from Ciudades Verdes), accompanied by biologist Jorge Alberto Viana, Director of the Community College of Tres Marias and Catalina who is a teacher visited the lake in front of the school; students make frequent cleaning tasks to ensure a healthy habitat for endemic species and for the people of the community; however, more is needed, it takes at least for all of us not to lower our guard, and tighten the step, as the current students and teachers from the Community College do.
We walked among pine trees, breathed the aroma and took refuge in its shadow, the weather is regularly cold and rains are frequent. Near the lake we were greeted by a charismatic and controversial animal that stood still and quiet while we watched, some call it horned toad or horned chameleon. it is also known as torito of the virgin, but it is mainly known as “bleeding cry. Those who know say it is a specie of lizard. Its particularity is that it defends itself from predators by throwing a red liquid through the lacrimal glands; once by the lake, singing frogs welcomed us, we even saw some, their green and black colors were bright and their alert little eyes were bulging. We saw tadpoles, birds, a small snake, fungi …. and we left there with a desire to return. Thanks to Biologist and Director of the campus Jorge Alberto Viana Lases for his company and advice.
The visit to the Texcal was made possible by biologist Valeria Davila Solano, coordinator of the Center for Environmental Training (CECAM) at the UPEMOR, and the generosity of Engineer Carmelo Robles Alcaraz, director of the park who personally accompanied and guided us in this visit. The path was guarded by huge cacti and coajiotes, the latter are trees that have the ability to permanently change the shallowest part of its bark, and it can be used as a kind of papyrus. We were entering an area of deciduous forest and aquatic vegetation.
The road was giving us signs of the wetland, a truly beautiful place that needs our care and protection. We saw signs that it is cared for and valued. We observed two species of ducks, Coot and Gadwall. We saw a turtle and a myriad of birds and insects. We stopped several times in search of the endemic species found in this place, one of them being the chub rafts. We had to stay very still and quiet to appreciate it and we got our reward to our respectful observation. That invaluable place overwhelmed our sight and and ratified our commitment to move towards sustainability in educational establishments, the area of action that belongs to us and to which we have a great and necessary commitment, and as the song says “I want to go back, yes, yes, I want to go back “…
