Resumen:
Mountain tapir (Tapirus pinchaque, Roulin 1829) is one of the four species that represent the Tapiridae family in the world. It is distributed in the Ecuadorian, Peruvian and Colombian Andes(Lizcano et al. 2006). It is currently classified as an endangered species by the IUCN Red List (Lizcano et al. 2006) and gaps in population ecology and natural history still exist (Lizcano et al. 2005). The gathering of information contributing to the local management of mountain tapir populations is essential.
