Wildlife and agricultural issues in Argentina

Overview

In Argentina, authorities in Catamarca conducted raids on clandestine depots, discovering over 50 wild birds held in poor conditions. These animals suffered from malnutrition and physical damage, leading to legal actions against commercial networks exploiting biodiversity.

In Entre Ríos, provincial authorities and stakeholders are working to regulate Provincial Law No. 11.184, which designates wild boar, feral pigs, and axis deer as invasive pest species. Meanwhile, in Salta, an agricultural emergency has been declared in several areas, including Cafayate and Cachi, following late frosts that caused significant crop damage for viticulturists and fruit and vegetable producers.
