Description


Malgré sa capacité à coloniser de nombreux types de forêt, la destruction de plus des trois quarts de son habitat originel menace l’espèce de disparition. Chaque année, 5 000 km2 de forêts colombiennes disparaissent. La partie sud de Paramillo est menacée d’inondation par la création de barrages hydroélectriques sur les Rios Sinú et San Jorge. D’autres menaces pèsent sur lui, comme le développement du marché local d’animaux de compagnie et la recherche. Des dizaines de milliers de spécimens ont été exportés aux USA pour la recherche biomédicale (colite, cancer du colon, virus d’Epstein-Barr), pas tous d’élevage hélas. Le cancer du colon spontané chez les populations captives représente un inconvénient pour son élevage. Il ne reste que 2000 à 3000, dans la nature. Heureusement les Zoos participent activement à leur préservation. Despite its ability to colonize many forest types, the destruction of more than three-quarters of its original habitat threatens the species' extinction. Every year, 5,000 km2 of Colombian forests disappear. The southern part of Paramillo is threatened by flooding due to the creation of hydroelectric dams on the Rios Sinú and San Jorge rivers. Other threats include the development of the local pet market and research. Tens of thousands of specimens have been exported to the USA for biomedical research (colitis, colon cancer, Epstein-Barr virus), unfortunately not all of them for breeding. Spontaneous colon cancer in captive populations is a disadvantage for its breeding. There are only 2,000 to 3,000 left in the wild. Fortunately, the Zoos are actively involved in their preservation.

En regardant vos photos de ces étranges animaux, je réalise que ça fait déjà depuis très très longtemps que j'ai visité un zoo. Toutefois, avec ces photos d'une telle netteté, c'est comme si je réalise enfin mon vieux rêve. Merci pour cette visite guidée.

it is hard to comprehend medical research killing off a species for research. just like the American Buffalos were also killed almost to extinction until ranch owners started breeding them. the national park service allows ranchers to borrow some of the herds in parks for breeding purposes
