1. Flora and fauna of Colombia
In Colombia, 1,203 species are threatened,
173 are critically endangered, 390 are endan-
gered and 640 species are vulnerable in both
1203 species in Colombia have
been affected by hunting
2,697 species, of which 503 are ani-
mals and 2194 plants, are at risk
due to logging.
It should be noted that the deforestation nuclei coincide with the
limited distribution worldwide of nine animal species and 106 en-
demics of Colombia. The situation is worrisome and critical in Me-
ta and Chocó, because they concentrate a greater number of uni-
que species, 16 and 81 respectively.
"It is necessary to focus on production systems that take into account
the native species of each place, not only for their productive use, but
to include them within agroforestry systems that allow their conserva-
tion," says Professor Hetor Fabio Ramos.
