Wild Center – Tambopata Sandoval  3dias

Resumen Comportamiento de guacamayos: El guacamayo cabezon (Ara chloropterus) es uno de lamas común de las especies de loro que se encuentra cerca tierras salados de las orillas deríos (o colpas) del sureste de Perú.

Auncomún en cuativario, existe poco información sobreinteracciones sociales en su estado silvestre. Colpas son sitios

ideales donde se puedemonitorear comportamiento de aves silvestres, aun la presencia de la colpa misma puedetener

un impacto en el comportamiento. Hicimos monitoreo de guacamayos alrededor de doscolpas en bosque de lluvia de

la Amazona. Comportamiento de guacamayos estabasignificante diferente entre aves en los árboles y aves en la misma colpa. La posición del aveen la vegetación alrededor de la colpa también puede tener impacto en su

comportamiento,con aves más alto observado más acicalándose y acicalando parejas. Agresión es elevadocon

proximidad de la colpa y en la colpa misma, pero los guacamayos aguantan la presenciade vecinos consignos de sumisión. Si agresión es una característica de individuos o siinteracciones sirven como una manera de sustentar su

posición de poder dentro de lacomunidad no es claro. Insectos molestan más a los guacamayos escarlatas alrededor

de susnidos como los guacamayos alrededor de la colpa. Jugando, acicalándose y agresión seobserva más alrededor de la colpa que los nidos.

Conservation & Challenges

Tambopata faces pressures from increased human settlement and road construction. Monitoring efforts, such as camera traps and mammal surveys near clay licks, help track species recovery and guide better management strategies.
