Pipile sp.
Pipile as a protein source to rural hunters and Amerindians.
Thus, seasonally flooded evergreen forests were positively selected for hunting primates; this class also recorded the highest bird catches ("pajui", black curassow, Crax alector; "pava", blue-throated biping-guan,
Pipile cumanensis and spix's guan, Penelope jacquacu; family Cracidae), but this prevalence was not statistically significant.
Frequent visitors to the saltlick during the day include two species of primates, red howler monkeys (Alouatta seniculus) and white-bellied spider monkeys (Ateles belzebuth), and several species of birds, including common piping guan (
Pipile pipile), plumbeous pigeon (Columba plumbea), ruddy quail-dove (Geotrygon montana), speckled chachalaca (Ortalisguttata), mealy amazon (Amazona farinosa) and yellow-crowned amazon (Amazona ochrocephala).

Se muestra que 15 especies se encuentran bajo procesos de extincion local; y que probablemente Ateles sp., Psophia leucoptera,
Pipile cumanenses y Aburria aburri han sido extirpadas del area de uso comunal.

Entre las aves, las mas amenazadas por la presion selectiva de caza son los cracidos (Mitu, Crax, Penelope, Nothocrax y
Pipile, sobre todo), trompeteros (Psophia), grandes loros (Ara, Amazona), grandes aves rapaces (aguila arpia especialmente), aves acuaticas como garzas, cormoranes, anhingas y patos (Cairina, Dendrocygna y Neochen).
