This is due to the commemoration of the signing of the Convention on Wetlands in Ramsar, Iran. Here the conservation and wise use of wetlands is agreed upon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why are wetlands so important?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wetlands are ecosystems rich in biodiversity. Wetlands include mangroves, coral reefs, estuaries and seagrass beds, which are the most biodiverse environments in the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for the flora, only 100 mammals live in dependence on the wetlands. Among them are shrews, hippopotamuses, otters, beavers, minks or muskrats. Also more than 1800 birds have this type of ecosystem as their home, such as pelicans, sea crows, ducks, geese and swans, etc. Among the amphibians there are more than 5000 species that have the role of bioindicators to consider the environmental quality of a biological environment since they are animals that are highly sensitive to changes in their habitats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to being home to many animals and plants, wetlands are important because they buffer floods. In effect, they act like sponges and absorb water from rainfall and rising rivers and then slowly filter that water through the soil. On top of that, they reduce the impact of waves and stabilize coastal areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, being areas with soil saturated with water over time, wetlands retain and supply water, both for human consumption and for sustaining wildlife. Moreover, they provide food, materials and medicines, since the products extracted from wetlands can be fish, timber, firewood, vegetable oil, salt, medicinal plants, etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Wetlands in Costa Rica<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Costa Rica there are 350 wetlands covering 569,742 hectares, representing 7% of the national territory. However, only 12 of these wetlands are considered &#8220;Ramsar sites&#8221;. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Potrero Grande Mangroves<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img
