Resumen:
In this chapter, we review the information on three aspects of vicuña ( Vicugna
vicugna ) behaviour and ecology (1) intra-specific relationships, (2) foraging behaviour
and ecology and (3) habitat utilization. We will also compare some of the
behaviour and ecology of the vicuña with that of other South American camelid
species, the wild guanaco Lama guanicoe , and the domestic llama Llama glama
and alpaca Lama pacos . We will emphasize the spatial dimension of the vicuñas
behaviour and the implications for the management of vicuña in protected areas.
