“…Aunque la mortalidad del sistema ME fue baja (2,8%), de los 3 casos fatales por eutanasia terapéutica, 2 se relacionaron con fracturas en los miembros y evidencian el nivel de compromiso que puede sufrir del aparato locomotor con estas lesiones, que son una de las principales causas de retiro temporal o total de las actividades de los caballos e, incluso, de eutanasia (Morales et al 2009). Menor mortalidad se presentó en los sistemas reproductivo, con 2 casos (8,3%), donde uno fue por eutanasia; nervioso e inmune, con dos fallecimientos, cada uno y, cardiovascular, urinario y multisistémico, con un caso fatal, cada uno.…”

Know the most frequent pathologies facilitates the clinical orientation improving the prognosis of the patients. To determine the pathologies that occur in horses at the U.D.C.A Veterinary Clinic, a retrospective study was conducted between january and december 2017. 242 clinical histories were analyzed, classifying the cases according to date, origin, race, sex, age, defi nitive diagnosis, system, medical-surgical treatment and evolution. The most frequent source was the department of Cundinamarca and the city of Bogotá, 55.8% were females, 44.2% males, age between 1 day and 25 years, 24% young, 76% adults with an average age of 81.5 months and a standard deviation of 51.7 months, the predominant breed was Colombian Creole Horse (CCC). The most affected systems were muscle skeletal (ME), digestive (D), and reproductive, the most frequent cases were classic stringhalt or equine refl ex hypertonia, which occurred only in CCC, alterations of the large intestine, and cryptorchidism, respectively. Surgical treatment was given to 66.5%

“…Hunting of all psittacid species is banned, and the majority of psittacids are listed in Appendix II of CITES, with three ( Amazona barbadensis , Ara macao and Ara militaris ) listed in Appendix I (UNEP-WCMC, 2015). There are no captive-breeding or sustainable use programmes or government-sanctioned management plans for psittacids in Venezuela (Bigio et al, 1994; Morales & Dessene, 1994).…”

Illegal wildlife trade is one of the major threats to Neotropical psittacids, with nearly 28% of species targeted for the illegal pet trade. We analysed the most comprehensive data set on illegal wildlife trade currently available for Venezuela, from various sources, to provide a quantitative assessment of the magnitude, scope and detectability of the trade in psittacids at the national level. We calculated a specific offer index (SO) based on the frequency of which each species was offered for sale. Forty-seven species of psittacids were traded in Venezuela during 1981–2015, of which 17 were non-native. At least 641,675 individuals were traded, with an overall extraction rate of 18,334 individuals per year (35 years of accumulated reports). Amazona ochrocephala was the most frequently detected species (SO = 3.603), with the highest extraction rate (10,544 individuals per year), followed by Eupsittula pertinax (SO = 1.357) and Amazona amazonica (SO = 1.073). Amazona barbadensis, Ara ararauna and Ara chloropterus were the fourth most frequently detected species (SO = 0.564–0.615). Eleven species were involved principally in domestic trade (> 60% of records). Our approach could be the first step in developing a national monitoring programme to inform national policy on the trade in psittacids. Patterns and numbers provided may be used to update the official list of threatened species, and could also be used in planning conservation actions.
