Resumen:
Ethnographic studies and ethnohistoric literature from the south of SouthAmerica showed strong interest in Rheas (Rhea americana and Rhea pennata)consumption. The Chronicles from numerous explorers of the nineteenth centurymentioned different aspects of the exploitation of these birds by Native Americanpeople from South America, as well as by rural populations from the Pampa andPatagonia regions at the beginning of twentieth century. In this chapter we showthe traditional techniques of hunting, butchering and consumption of these birds.The information belongs to direct observations and interviews to ranchers from ruralareas of southern Mendoza, Argentina.
