conservación, reptiles, etiqueta, PodocnemisResumo
El marcado o marcaje de tortugas es un método ampliamente utilizado para facilitar el seguimiento de la demografía y estructura de las poblaciones y la conservación de las especies. Aunque se utilizan en muchos estudios de demografía de tortugas, los métodos disponibles no son muy eficaces, excepto los microchips (Passive Intergraded Transponder/PIT tags); sin embargo, estos últimos son demasiado caros para ser utilizados a gran escala. Aquí presentamos una alternativa de marcado viable y rentable que utiliza una marca de plástico duradera para ganado y un alfiler. Se marcaron tortugas del género Podocnemis en la región del Bajo Amazonas, al oeste del estado de Pará, Amazonas, Brasil. Este método es muy recomendable para futuros trabajos de seguimiento y estructura poblacional de grandes especies de tortugas dulceacuícolas. Además de su viabilidad, puede utilizarse en forma de ciencia ciudadana, ya que la información puede ser obtenida por profanos y llevada a investigadores y conservacionistas.
Key words: conservación, reptiles, etiqueta, Podocnemis.
