Tamshiyacu Tahuayo Regional Conservation Area (ACRCTT; Spanish: Área de Conservación Regional Comunal Tamshiyacu Tahuayo) is a protected area located south east of Iquitos, extending over the Peruvian department of Loreto, provinces of Maynas (district of Fernando Lores), Ramón Castilla (district of Yavarí) and Requena (district of Sapuena and district of Yaquerana). It was established by the Peruvian Ministry of Environment (MINAM; Spanish: Ministerio del Ambiente) on May 15, 2009. The reserve is managed and funded by the Regional Government of Loreto. Tamshiyacu Tahuayo Regional Conservation Area spans an area of 4,200.8 km2 (420,080.25 ha; 1'038,040.9 acre; 1,621.94 sq miles) comprising floodable and upland forest of the Peruvian Amazon. It is known for its abundant wildlife. It has high levels of biodiversity. Hundreds of species of mammals, primates, birds, fish and reptiles have been documented, including several that are endemic as well as either endangered or threatened. The reserve was established to conserve ecosystems of upland and floodable rainforests, as well as ecological and evolutionary processes of the area, guaranteeing the sustainable use of the wildlife by the local population. Tamshiyacu Tahuayo has several research and tourist activities focused on wildlife-spotting, including camping, hiking, boating, bird watching and fishing. == History == Much research has been conducted in this area since the mid-1970s. Between 1988 and 1990 the importance of conserving the area was highlighted due its unique and vast biodiversity , especially the high diversity of primates as the threatened bald uakari (''Cacajao calvus ucayalii''), endemic to Peru, as well as other species recently recorded as the ''Ranitomeya uakarii''. at During the 1980s, in order to stop the exploitation and degradation of natural resources that started around 1970, local villages of the Alto Tahuayo River and the Blanco River took actions to protect their resources. This local organization influenced the establishment of the reserve. Villagers later joined and with some researchers from the United States, University of Kent, The Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS), the Peruvian Instituto Veterinario de Investigaciones Tropicales y de Altura (IVITA), and the Rainforest Conservation Fund (RCF) to start a program of sustainable development. On May 21, 2007, the Regional Government of Loreto signed the Ordenanza Regional 011-2007-GRL-CR that approved the technical proposal for the establishment of the protected area. Finally, on May 15, 2009, Ministry of Environment signed the Decreto Supremo 010-2009-MINAM, law that created the Regional Conservation Area Tamshiyacu Tahuayo. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tamshiyacu Tahuayo Regional Conservation Area」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
