Journalist Jorge Ramos, host of the weekly Univision program Al Punto, interviewed PATROL co-director Camilo de Castro along with film protagonists John Armando, a former forest ranger in Nicaragua's Indio Maiz Biological Reserve, and Chris Jordan with ReWild about the impact of illegal cattle ranching on local communities and the environment, and how illegally raised beef is finding its way into the US.
PATROL claimed the Spirit of Activism Award at the Wild & Scenic Fim Festival, given in recognition of the team’s ongoing efforts to stop illegal cattle ranching and safeguard lives and protected rainforest in the Indio-Maiz Reserve.
