Abstract

Protecting wildlife is one of the mission pillars of the corporation for the Macarena Special Management Area's sustainable development, for this reason the corporation must establish goals that reduce the impact of illegal hunting and wildlife trafficking. The main activities carried out by the corporation to recover wildlife specimens taken from their natural habitat are: voluntary wildlife delivery campaigns, seizure campaigns carried out in joint operations with the environmental police at different pet stores, commercial establishments and road operations, attention to complaints and rescue of specimens victims of road traffic accidents or electrocution. Now, each of the activities carried out to recover wildlife result in a high reception of specimens of different species; which require attention and assessment, to define the status of the specimen and establish the route of the protocol of measures after the reception, according to resolution 2064 of 2010. It is important to highlight that not all specimenjs that are received can be released in their natural habitat after their assessment; therefore, the protocol of care and rehabilitation of the specimen for its subsequent release or relocation must be activated. In this order of ideas and according to the resolution 2064 of 2010, the corporation must have an attention and valuation center or a wildlife transient home to guarantee the attention, valuation and rehabilitation of the specimens brought to the corporation.
