This system that was explored by the equipment of Labnaha has also unique particularities, one of these particularities is the great amount of fauna that lives in the cave, so is so that it has not been seen in any of the systems explored in the area before. The Independent University of Mexico is conducting, with Labnaha, studies into this unique fauna.

One of the objectives of Labnaha is to collaborate with Universities and Foundations which are dedicated to the study of the fauna and flora that live in the underground systems and of which we have little information due to the fact that many species are completely new to the human eye.

Labnaha makes ecological studies of fauna and flora underneath the water and also outside of it with different campings in the jungle where it is easier to be able to observe and to study these species without been influenced ,until now, by the human species.
One of the main objectives of Labnaha is to be able to protect the ecological surroundings of the underground systems as well as to be able to protect these systems against the uncontrolled advance of the man.
Labnaha respects the nature in all its forms as well as respect for ancestral culture. The Mayans were the first people to inhibit this area and often left apart.
The exploration group of Labnaha learned that Mayan communities in this area are the true guardians of the nature since they live in these surroundings in harmony with it from unmemorable times, and for that reason they are the true teachers in everything that concerns us about the coexistence with nature
To learn of these is one of the biggest objectives that the equipment of exploration of Labnaha has, because, nowadays we are in a society in complete decaying respect to the surroundings in which we live. A lot of people don’t respect them at all.
Labnaha has a good relationship with the Mayan communities based on respect and also to be able to learn from these communities, values that our society has already lost long time ago.
