The former Museum of Natural History Curaçao designed a total of 3 educational posters for schools in 2019-2020 about the wildlife of the island. These digital posters were designed as PDF documents in A3 formats that could be downloaded and printed for uses in educational settings. These 3 posters are now also available for download on the Caribbean Footprint website.

Publication: Field observations on some Curaçao land snails, and new records for its fauna – 2014
Currently 31 species of terrestrial snails are known from Curaçao, 28 of these are indigenous. The taxonomy of Curaçao land snails has been studied quite well. An inventory of species and subspecies exists. About their ecology however much less is known. The influence of salt spray from the sea on the distribution of some species is discussed. By observing snails in the field some conclusions about their ecology have been reached; these and some further assumptions are hereby presented.
