OSO ANDINO – ANTEOJOS

• The tremarctos ornatus, also called the Andean or


Spectacled bear, is a small bear with a very distinctive
appearance, especially due to its face, which is why it is also
known as the "spectacled" bear. Other names it receives are
the ucumari or South American bear.It is an omnivorous
animal, but with a mostly vegetarian diet. Its range of
distribution covers a strip of the Andes mountain range,
from Nevezuela to northern Argentina. The Andean bear is
an endangered animal in Peru and other areas. One of the
causes that has caused the death of many of its specimens is
the destruction of its habitat. Currently, there are some
conservation projects for this species
ITS ADVANTAGES
• The spectacled bear is also an
umbrella species. Its conservation
benefits the protection of the
páramo, cloud forests and dozens
of species that inhabit these
ecosystems. 70% of the water
consumed by Colombians comes
from these spaces.
Its disadvantages
• The spectacled bear that inhabits
this protected area is threatened
above all by forest fires, changes in
land use, and interaction with
livestock. These are the three
dangers that this species faces and
that can cause a decrease in its
population.
