Programa de manejo sostenible para la corzuela roja pequeña Mazama rufina (pucheran, 1851), del Parque Nacional Sangay.

Abstract

The present research aims to design a sustainable management program for the Red Brocket Deer (Mazama Rufina) (Puconan, 1851), from the Sangay National Park in order to determine the population density of the species based on the Sangay National Park study. In addition, it was based on the field research with the application of presence and absence techniques, direct observation and photo trapping with the use of trap chambers which were installed in trunks of trees, stakes and shrubs, which allowed to determine what is the population density of the cervicabra in the park. Subsequently, the ideal habitat was characterized within the study arca, by analyzing the results of the previous objective, with which a baseline was drawn that characterized the habitat of the species by finding the reality of the flora and fauna and its interrelationships, mainly cating habits, categorization, sociability and current problem that affects its low population density. In fact, it is concluded with the proposal for conservation and protection strategies of the focal object study with the design of a conceptual model that determines a meta of conservation and protection of cervicabra and its long-term habitat posing strategic interventions to minimize all pressures identified in the Sangay National Park, which affects the presence of this specie.
