ENDANGERED ANIMALS IN PERU

The red huapo, also known as red uácari, is characterized above all by its reddish face free of hair.

They live in trees, in areas that

are periodically swamped, and feed on fruits, seeds, insects and small animals.

During the day they roam in small groups in search of food, but to sleep at night all the members of the herd gather together, which usually consists of about 50 individuals.

THEME: THE HUAPO COLORADO

REPRODUCTION:

ACCORDING TO A STUDY CARRIED OUT IN BRAZIL, AMAZONAS FONTE BOAN.

THEY MATE BETWEEN OCTOBER AND MAY.

FEMALES CAUSE EVERY 2 YEARS, GENERALLY 1 ONLY CRIA.

WHEN THE FEMALE ATTRACTS THE MALE USING OLFACTORY STIMULI.

FEEDING:

FEEDING:

They feed on seeds, fruits, leaves, flowers and some insects and live in the treetops of the swampy areas of the Amazon, in Brazil and Peru.

The red HUAPO normally lives from fifteen to twenty

years, but these days its future is threatened and it is in danger of extinction.

BEHAVIOR AND CUSTOMS:

BEHAVIOR AND CUSTOMS:

It is an arboreal species that lives mainly in the flooded forest of the Amazon Basin.

They live in groups of 5 to 55 members that

cover an area of up to 600 hectares.

They mate between October and May, when the female attracts the male using olfactory stimuli.

Females conceive at intervals of two years and generally give birth to one calf, which is weaned between 3 and 5 months of age.

CONSERVATION:

CONSERVATION:

It is considered a vulnerable species, since a population decline of

at least 30% is calculated in the last 30 years due to hunting and

habitat loss. Between 1980 and 1990, an average of 154 million

hectares of tropical forest per year is estimated in the Amazon.

The timber industry is the activity that contributes the most to

this destruction, which normally implies the loss of continuity of

the tree canopy. This directly affects the lifestyle of the UACARIS

due to their arboreal habits and their diet based on seeds.

Additionally, the populations of CARCAJAO CALVUS are located

mainly in the Amazon River bed, which increases the risk of being

hunted, to be used as a source of food or as bait.

LOCATION:

It is a highly specialized species found in a narrow range of

geographic distribution, with the largest known populations

having been identified near the mouth of the YAVARI MIRIN River,

on the border of Peru and Brazil.

Its bright red face is an indicator

of good health, reflecting a balanced diet of seeds, fruits, flowers,

and insects.

They live in family groups, although the males tend to leave them to start their own groups.

The UACARI prefers palm tree

habitats, due to the greater availability of food, as in the case of

The red huapo normally lives from 15 to 20 years, but these days its future is threatened, and it is in danger of extinction.

It is a victim of poachers, who use it as food or simple bait and, worse

still, of the activities of the logging industry that is taking away its

natural habitat.
