The altiplano of Tarapacá is a unique ecosystem that harbors local communities and a little-known biodiversity. In this environment, the puma, a predator adapted to extreme conditions, coexists with livestock farming and mining activities. The following book compiles two years of research conducted by Fauna Australis from The Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile and the Agricultural and Livestock Service of Tarapacá, with the support of international specialists. The aim is to present in an accessible way the results on the ecology of the puma and the life of local inhabitants, so that Chilean society values this ecosystem and its wildlife.
