Relaciones Entre Los Pobladores Rurales Y Los Carnívoros Altoandinos Del Distrito De Anco, Centro - Sur Del Perú

Abstract: ResumenSe realizaron 75 entrevistas semi -estructuradas a los pobladores rurales del distrito de Anco en Agosto de 2006 con el fin de describir las relaciones entre el ser humano y los carnívoros altoandinos. El 100% de los entrevistados afirmó que existe un gran conflicto en la convivencia con los carnívoros altoandinos. Este se debe a la incidencia de pérdidas económicas producidas por la depredación de animales domésticos y/o pérdidas en la producción de los cultivos agrícolas. El 52% de los pobladores reco… Show more

“…These feelings of awe and admiration for the predators were present despite the costs inflicted by these species, a complex relationship that has also been observed between Maasai people and lions [ 76 ], and in the suburbs of Cape Town in South Africa where the residents of an eco-estate became highly conflicted about the arrival of a wild caracal in the area that was eating their domestic cats [ 4 ]. Similarly, in the rural communities of the High Andes, 56% of the interviewees displayed positive attitudes towards predators of their livestock, notably the pampas cat ( Leopardus colocolo ), the puma ( Puma concolor ) and the culpeo ( Lycalopex culpaeus ), based on their “intelligence, force, courage and beauty” [ 77 ]. The appreciation of the species for their strength and adaptability—with perceptions of jackal as a “super-jackal” able to adapt to any situations and to outwit farmers and their traps—also matches the perceptions of the red fox ( Vulpes vulpes ) in numerous European social and regional contexts, and those of various fox species in Hispanic America where feelings of admiration for their cunning coexist with their image as thieves [ 78 ].…”

“…La percepción negativa hacia una especie en particular puede afectar los procesos de conservación que se realicen. En general, en el Neotrópico se ha documentado una imagen negativa hacia los depredadores (Deustua et al, 2008;Balaguera-Reina & González-Maya, 2010;O'Neal & Torres, 2011;Michalski et al, 2012) que han ejercido históricamente una fuerte competencia a las poblaciones humanas (Quammen, 2004). Esta competencia se ha relacionado con el uso de recursos como alimento y espacio, lo cual en la mayoría de los casos es traducido como fuentes de amenaza y presión sobre las poblaciones silvestres del depredador en cuestión (Kushlan & Mazzotti, 1989).…”
