Celaque National Park

Celaque National Park (formally in Spanish, ''Parque Nacional Montaña de Celaque'') is a national park in Lempira Department, western Honduras. It was established on 1 January 1987 and covers an area of 266.4 square kilometres.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://sea.unep-wcmc.org/wdbpa/sitedetails.cfm?siteid=18805 )〕 It includes Honduras’ tallest peak, called Cerro Las Minas or Pico Celaque, which reaches approximately above mean sea level. It has an elevation ranging from . Celaque’s terrain is very rugged, two-thirds of the area has a slope greater than 60 degrees. The park is classified as a cloud forest with a mean precipitation of 1,600 mm at lower altitudes and a mean of 2,400 mm at higher altitudes. The word ''celaque'' is reputed to mean ''caja de aguas'' ("box of water(s)") in the local, but now extinct, indigenous Lenca language. Celaque’s nine rivers supplies water to 120 villages nearby including the district capital of Gracias. Celaque is high in biodiversity and is home to jaguars, pumas, ocelots and Bolitoglossa celaque, an endangered plethodontid salamander found only in the mountains of Celaque. However, Celaque was not always a recognized park.
==Establishment==
Between 1970-1980 The Honduran Forestry Development Corporation (HFDC) lead intense logging throughout Celaque’s peaks. The result was a loss in biodiversity and vital resources to the communities. However, logging was not the only cause of loss of forests. The communities inside the park’s perimeters have created open forest patches due to small-scale farming. The people of La Campa, a town close by, grew nervous and formed a grassroots organization to try to stop the logging. Their goal was met in 1987 when the National Congress of Honduras made Celaque a national park. By forming the park, some were nationally protected from logging, agriculture, outside incursion and market-related forestry exploitation.
