LEBER, Virginia y MARIA JULIA, Kristensen. Relative Tetrapod Vulnerability in Arroyo Zabala Reserve (Buenos Aires , Argentina). Cienc. docencia tecnol. [online]. 2012, n.45, pp.195-210. ISSN 1851-1716.
Tetrapods have characteristics of vulnerability that make them adequate as a focus of attention when management priorities need to be established in protected areas. The aim was to determine the relative vulnerability of amphibians, reptiles, and mammals of verified or potential occurrence in one Multiple Use Nature Reserve in Buenos Aires Province (Argentina), in order to contribute to its management plan. We applied a vulnerability index (sumin) on the lists of species based on the literature available and interviews. Eight species were categorized as of highest priority of conservation: 11.11 % of amphibians, 15.79 % of reptiles, and 15.39 % of mammals. Eighteen other species were categorized as needing special attention: 33.33 % of amphibians, 31.58 % of reptilians and 34.62 % of mammals.
