Chile is preparing to create a new national park to protect its endangered wildlife and unique ecosystems.
The park, Cape (Cabo) Froward National Park, would stretch some 370,000 acres.
It would be located on the Brunswick Peninsula, according to Reuters.

Forests, peatlands, glaciers and coastline can be found across the land.
Cape Froward sits at the southern tip of the Americas.
It's been called a park "on the edge of the world," a place where the Americas meet Antarctica.

The Brunswick Peninsula is located in Patagonia, bordering the Strait of Magellan and Otway Sound.
Wildlife coordinator Benjamin Caceres of Rewilding Chile, a nonprofit conservation foundation involved with the project, told Reuters the peninsula is a "mosaic of marine, coastal and land ecosystems."
"These are resilient places that maintain balance and create a refuge for species that are in danger of extinction," Caceres said.
The land - considered a site of cultural and historical heritage - is in ancestral Kawésqar territory.
It's an area tied to early "end-of-the-world" exploration history, according to Rewilding Chile.
