| The park was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994 due to the extraordinary diversity of plant and animal species represented. | WIKI |
| The two largest parts of the park are the Serranxc3xada del Darixc3xa9n mountains, which lie to the west, and the Atrato River floodplains in the east. | WIKI |
| Swampy marshes spread for nearly half of the park's total area. | WIKI |
| The park is home to at least 450 species of birds. | WIKI |
| [2] Almost 20% of the plant species in the park are endemic to the Chocxc3xb3-Darixc3xa9n moist forests. | WIKI |
| The park also protects important landscape features such as the 25 m high Tendal waterfall, the 100 m high Tilupo waterfall and the Tumaradxc3xb3 swamps. | WIKI |
| In 1990, the park was made accessible by paths and accommodation for small groups of visitors, who have access to the national park through the park administration in Sautatxc3xa1. | WIKI |
| In more recent times, about one percent of the park in the Sautatxc3xa1 area was agriculturally developed and used primarily for the cultivation of sugar cane. | WIKI |
| After the park was established in 1974, over the next seven years the 150 or so local families were relocated to the nearby towns of Unguxc3xada, Puente Amxc3xa9rica, Tumaradxc3xb3 and Cacarica. | WIKI |
| The park was placed on the List of World Heritage in Danger in 2009 at the request of the Colombian government to handle threats to its protection, notably deforestation, unauthorized settlements, illegal fishing and hunting. | WIKI |
| In 2015, the park was removed from the List of World Heritage in Danger due to significant improvements in the management of the park and of steps taken by the national authorities to reduce illegal extraction of timber and overfishing. | WIKI |
| Extending over 72,000 hectares in north-western Colombia, the park is located in the Colombian mountain zone up to an elevation of 600m and encompasses significant wetland areas, including the extensive Cixc3xa9nagas de Tumaradxc3xb3. | UNESCO |
| Criterion (x): The park is home to around 450 species of birds, some 25% and 50% respectively of the avifaunas of Colombia and Panama. | UNESCO |
| Los Katxc3xados is unique in South America for the large number of typically Central American species found in the park. | UNESCO |
| The park is also home to several threatened species. | UNESCO |
| Around 20% of plant species occurring in the park are endemic to the Chocxc3xb3-Darien region. | UNESCO |
| The entire area is State-owned and although 5% of the parkxe2x80x99s area was compromised during 70 years by a sugar cane plantation and a cattle ranch, the area has now been recovered and and no settlements occur in the park. | UNESCO |
| The remaining 95% of the park is still a pristine environment, encompassing undisturbed on- going ecological and biological processes. | UNESCO |
| At time of inscription some civil disturbance in the region, commercial fishing and heavy boat traffic on the Atrato River which bisects the park was recorded, but management activities have since significantly improved the situation. | UNESCO |
| These activities reduce ecological connectivity within the park, and agriculture, hunting and fishing impact negatively on its values. | UNESCO |
| These challenges, as well as Illegal extraction of timber both within and at the periphery of the park; over-fishing (including the use of illegal poisonous substances which affects wetlands); reduction of natural habitats by conversion to shifting agriculture and cattle raising; intentional forest fires which significantly impact the extent and quality of natural forests; pollution to wetlands and water bodies; and the possible extension of the Pan American highway in proximity to the park all need to be addressed in order to effectively protect the Outstanding Universal Value of the property. | UNESCO |
