| Diversificaci¢n productiva en el campo experimental _Las Margaritas_, Puabla, M‚xico | |
| 2005 Archivos de Zootecnia (54): 197-203 | |
The experimental field _Las Margaritas_, in the Northeastern Mountain Range of the Puebla State, Mexico, possesses a great surface and contains some areas of tropical rain forest, that permits the presence of white-tailed deer, subspecies _veraecrucis_. By tread counting on transects, we conclude that the animals are distributed in 1271.58 ha to the north of the experimental field. The density of deer population average of 2.13 animals/ km2; å= 0.35; and VC= 16.62percent; the absolute population is of 27 individuals. We listed other wild animals existing in the area; there are Mexican threatened species as _Cairina moschata_, _Micrastur ruficolis_, _Crax rubra_, _Amazona oratrix_, _Ramphastos sulfuratos_, _Dryocopus lineatus_, _Leopardus pardalis _and _Panthera onca_. With regard of other regions of Puebla, _Las Margaritas_, has higher biological diversity representative of the humid tropic, the more diverse ecosystem of Mexico; this is an area of great ecological importance. Therefore the investigation, the biological experimental diversity and technology transfer, for conservation, management and sustainable utilization of its wildlife through the technological diversified ranching model, is a social, environmental, and economic alternative for 816 rural producers, to stop the tendencies of deterioration of the natural resources, and to diminish the levels of poverty and exclusion in the Northeastern Mountain Range, from Puebla State, Mexico. |
