Gestión del Riesgo de Fauna Silvestre

Dos experiencias en Barranquilla muestran que los riesgos de fauna silvestre no siempre son visibles ni tienen una causa evidente. La presencia recurrente de aves carroñeras llevó a descubrir residuos ocultos y agua estancada fuera del perímetro aeroportuario, mientras que la llegada de iguanas generaba un riesgo adicional al atraer buitres hacia animales heridos o muertos. Ambos casos demuestran que la gestión eficaz del riesgo exige mirar más allá de la pista, comprender las actividades humanas y ambientales del entorno, e identificar las cadenas de causa y efecto antes de elegir una solución.
