Huichol Deer Repopulation Project
La Peña is proud to sponsor the Huichal Deer Repopulation Project created by our friend Luis Guerra. Luis is a painter, sculptor, writer, storyteller and activist.
In recent months the Huichol Deer Repopulation Project has relocated 33 deer from northern Mexico to the Sierra Madre, in Jalisco. According to Luis, "The dream of repopulating the Sierra Madre of Jalisco with deer actually came to me about 28 years ago, when I attended the Huichol Festival of the Drum, the Corn, and the Squash. It was then that I learned that encroachment and poaching had decimated the deer population in Huichol land. Which was truly tragic, given that deer are sacred to the Huichol, an integral and major part of their cosmology." Read the full report.
Tax-deductible contribution to the Deer Project can be made via our Donate button. Please indicate that it is for the Deer Project in the “Add special instructions” field on the “Review Donations” page. You may also donate via check payable to La Peña indicating "Deer Project" in the memo and mail it to La Peña, 227 Congress Ave., Austin, TX 78701. Thank you for your support.
