Jaguar Protection Insurance

A pilot has been launched in Comandante Andresito, the municipality with the highest number of livestock losses due to jaguars in the Province of Misiones. The policy, purchased by the provincial government from Río Uruguay Seguros, covers cattle, pigs, sheep, goats, poultry, and pets (dogs and cats). It is provided free of charge to residents, with no deductibles. Claims are verified by Aves Argentinas, with support from Ministry of Ecology park rangers. Once an incident is confirmed, affected farmers receive compensation via a digital wallet or bank account. A support plan is also activated to help improve livestock protection and prevent future incidents. The initiative includes regular visits to assist producers in strengthening security measures and promotes broader adoption of these practices across local communities.
