Wild species housed in Animal Sorting Centers/Acre: conservationist implications
Abstract: The Wild Animal Sorting Centers – CETAS are institutions responsible for receiving wild animals. They animals were rescued from domestic captivity, from seizures during inspections by government agents in actions against illegal trafficking, and from environment accidents. The majority (90...

| description | Abstract: The Wild Animal Sorting Centers – CETAS are institutions responsible for receiving wild animals. They animals were rescued from domestic captivity, from seizures during inspections by government agents in actions against illegal trafficking, and from environment accidents. The majority (90.9%) are controlled by IBAMA and only 9.1% by the private sector. This worked aims at doing a survey of the species of wild animals received by the CETAS in Rio Branco – Acre from 2010 to 2014, and evaluating the conservationist implications involved. During that time span 2,320 animals were received, comprising 1,097 birds (47.2%), 720 reptiles (31.0%), 498 mammals (21.4%) and 5 fish (0.2%). From the animals rescued, 0.6% belong to the list of species threatened with extinction. Despite the inspections carried out by IBAMA and by the environment police, threatened species continue to be predatorily taken out from their habitats, especially birds, which are the most attacked group, considering the number of animals received for CETAS. |
