MEDINA-TORRES, Salvador Martín; GASTELUM-VIZCARRA, Eréndida Lucero; LARA-PONCE, Estuardo y PINA-RUIZ, Hugo Humberto. Participatory inventory of wild mammals in ejido San Ignacio, municipality of Morelos, Chihuahua. Acta Zool. Mex [online]. 2015, vol.31, n.2, pp.221-233. ISSN 2448-8445.
Four participatory inventories of wild mammals were carried out by using camera traps in the ejido San Ignacio and its surroundings, municipality of Morelos, Chihuahua, in an area of temperate forest pine dominance, and in less proportion oak-pine forests. Individual visits were recorded on video for each species in periods of 24 hours, considering four sampling periods during the dry and rainy seasons of 2013 and 2014. In total, 2.027 videos were recorded, of which 1,456 were effective in wild mammals in a sampling period of 426 trap-days. 11 species divided among nine families and five orders were recorded. Half of them are listed in the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). The 2013 dry season was the highest on species richness. The most abundant species were white-tailed deer, collared peccary and coati. The greater abundance of mammals was recorded at sites with oak-pine forest. The involvement and participation of landowners in the inventory, has favored the awareness of the importance of their zoocultural heritage and the need for its conservation. The information generated will serve as a basis for the development of community self-management programs for the regulation of harvesting of wild mammals for subsistence purposes by local residents.
