Lecciones aprendidas sobre el potencial y las limitantes para el desarrollo de alternativas al uso insostenible de la carne de monte en bosques tropicales y sub-tropicales a nivel mundial
In the world's tropical forests, wildlife utilization contributes substantially to the livelihoods of human populations and plays multiple roles as nutrition, source of income, medical or spiritual value. In certain parts of the world, unsustainable hunting has resulted in local extinction or reduction of vulnerable species with long-term consequences on the functioning of ecosystems and the livelihoods of people. In situations in which
the use of bushmeat is unsustainable, neither strict prohibition nor environmental education, can on their own reduce hunting pressure for populations communities that depend on this resource, and it is necessary to explore possible alternatives to the unsustainable exploitation of bushmeat. In this article, based on a review of scientific literature, project documents and expert surveys, we describe the different types of alternatives and the key challenges and risks associated with each, and provide recommendations for successful development.
Abstract (es):
En los bosques tropicales del mundo la utilización de fauna silvestre contribuye substancialmente a los medios de vida de las poblaciones humanas y desempeña múltiples papeles como el de nutrición, fuente de ingresos, valor medicinal o espiritual. En ciertas partes del mundo, la cacería no sostenible ha tenido como consecuencia la extinción local o la reducción de las poblaciones para ciertas especies vulnerables, con consecuencias a largo plazo sobre el funcionamiento de los ecosistemas y los modos de vida de la gente. En situaciones en las cuales el uso de carne de monte es insostenible, ni la prohibición ni la educación ambiental pueden por sí solas reducir la presión de caza para las poblaciones que dependen de ese recurso y es necesario explorar posibles alternativas al aprovechamiento no sostenible de carne de monte. En este artículo, con base en revisión de literatura científica, documentos de proyectos y encuestas a expertos, se describen los distintos tipos de alternativas y las principales dificultades y riesgos asociados a cada una de ellas y se proveen recomendaciones para su desarrollo exitoso.
