The main birds involved are the rufous-vented chachalaca (Ortalis ruficauda), the orange-winged parrot (Amazona amazonica), the crested oropendola (Psarocolius decumanus), the golden-olive woodpecker (Piculus rubiginosus), and the red-crowned woodpecker (Melanerpes rubricapillus). The fruits most damaged are cocoa, pommecytheres, mangos and oranges. The districts most affected are the ones near forests. Finally, apprpriate solutions to solve the problem proposed. (MIBA)
