MARTINEZ SALAS, Mónica del Pilar; LOPEZ AREVALO, Hugo Fernando y SANCHEZ PALOMINO, Pedro. Subsistence Hunting of Mammals in the Eastern Sector of Tuparro Biosphere Reserve, Vichada (COLOMBIA). Acta biol.Colomb. [online]. 2016, vol.21, n.1, pp.151-166. ISSN 0120-548X. https://doi.org/10.15446/abc.v21n1.49882.
Subsistence hunting has been an activity of vital importance to indigenous communities as a source of protein and sale. We characterized subsistence hunting by Curripaco and Piaroa ethnic groups present in the Tuparro Biosphere Reserve, through hunting records over nine months of study. We found no significant differences in species and number of individuals hunted by the two ethnic groups. The orders Rodentia and Artiodactyla contributed the most in terms of number of individuals, biomass and species richness, which was similar to studies to the Neotropics. The Piaroa hunt more frequently when students return to the community lands from the city, while the Curripaco do so for religious gatherings. The hunting method used most often by both ethnic groups was the shotgun. The hunting areas used by ethnic groups are within the RBT, and the Curripaco are utilizing the resources of the Tuparro Natural National Park, the core area.
