Recommendations for sustainable hunting of forest birds

The ONCFS now the OFB led and moderated the OGCFS project in 2017-2018, financed by ERDF, DEAL and OFB funds. The hunting practices of more than 250 hunters have been precisely described by a network of hunters recmated on the entire coast of Guyana for 2 years. The results (available on guyane.oncfs,fr) show that these practices are very varied, both in hunting modes, in hunting times or in the species taken. With regard to the latter point, the analysis of the hunting tables makes it possible to clarify that the birds most hunted by these groups of hunters are, in the order of the number of specimens taken: — coral Penelope, – hocco, – several species e tinamous (“perdrix”) – trumpet agami, – several species of toucans – several species of amazones The hocco is classified as vulnerable worldwide and the agami quasi-threatening in Guyana. Toucans amazone, tinamous or marails do not have special status in the red list of threatened species in French Guiana, are therefore deemed to be in good conservation status and have no particular regulatory protection. Hunting of these species is permitted throughout the year, day and night, in all places, unregulated, but sampling quotas apply for all these species.
