The work is so called to understand native species in Argentina. In particular, the work involves the Tarucas, also known as northern Andean deer, the Swamp Deer, and the Huemules in southern Patagonia. This scene represents the causality of a family displaced by the malicious fire that threatens them. What if this happened to us? Forest fires are a reality and cause irreparable damage to natural habitats. Environmental Education is a fundamental tool that must be pronounced from the school to reflect on time and be much more responsible. Know how to behave when we are in a national park or in any natural protected area. Their faces subtly reflect their uncertainty in the face of danger. It is a work that also invites us to think.
