Comportamiento reproductivo del loro tricahue (Cyanoliseus patagonus byroni) en condiciones de semicautiverio

Abstract

During this work it was made an ethological study of the reproductive behaviour of Cyanoliseus patagonus byroni under halfcaptivity conditions, at the Rio Clarillo National Reserve. Ethograms were made and applied in order to register the individual and social behaviour of the animals. The results obtained allowed to establish the existence of a relation about the neighbourhood of the animals and their social entails. The presence of coupling in pairs, which showed mate and nestling behaviour was identified. This animals form monogamous couples. Changes of the sexual partner during one reproductive period do not occur frequently.
