La asociación vecinal de Nordelta ha anunciado que aplicará vacunas anticonceptivas a 250 carpinchos para frenar su reproducción indiscriminada. La medida, que ha generado polémica entre los vecinos, busca preservar el equilibrio del ecosistema local, alterado por la urbanización. Algunos residentes proponen cerrar sectores de la zona para conservar el hábitat natural de estos animales. Esta será la primera vez que se implementa esta medida en Argentina, aprobada por Flora y Fauna de la provincia de Buenos Aires.

00:00The controversy is back for the Carpintxos in Nordelta.
00:04The neighborhood association of Nordelta announced,
00:09sent an email to all the neighbors this Saturday,
00:12saying that they are going to start applying to 250 Carpintxos
00:17anti-conceptive vaccines to stop the indiscriminate reproduction in the area of these animals.
00:23Now, the neighbors of Nordelta know that the problem are the neighbors of Nordelta and not the Carpintxos.
00:28They are a little wrong.
00:31There is a controversy because there are neighbors who are in favor of the Carpintxos.
00:36But do you know that what they did was to urbanize an area that was basically habitat of the Carpintxos?
00:43Yes, yes. And there are neighbors who proposed to close some sectors of Nordelta
00:50and leave the natural habitat of the Carpintxos for them.
00:54For the neighbors.
00:56For the animals.
00:58Well, this was not approved.
01:02I read this information yesterday, in Spain they are having a serious problem with beavers.
01:08With beavers.
01:10In Sweden it was a plague.
01:14In Rome you have a problem with wild boars.
01:16Well, in Spain now, if you go to any of the portals, it is a topic every day.
01:23They are starting to have a serious problem because no one knows,
01:28first no one knows who approached them and the level of reproduction they have.
01:31Today they have a serious problem with beavers.
01:34And in Ushuaia too.
01:37Well, that's why the Cerro Castor was there, precisely in Ushuaia.
01:40They caused a serious problem.
01:44Well, sorry, and in La Pampa the hunting of wild boars with dogs was enabled, with a very strong controversy.
01:51Yes, of course.
01:52Yes, because they are a plague too.
01:54I don't know if wild dogs, I don't know who hunts who.
01:57I don't know, yes, yes.
01:58A big dog.
01:59No, seriously.
02:00Yes, yes.
02:01A little misled, right?
02:03This anti-conceptive vaccine was tested in other countries.
02:06It was launched and this will be the first time that it is implemented in Argentina.
02:10From Flora y Fauna de la Provincia de Buenos Aires, who are the ones who finally approved this measure.
02:17They are going to start implementing it in the next few days.
02:20And they said that it is also to control this, the indiscriminate reproduction, which can also harm the animal itself.
02:27But what is indiscriminate?
02:29It is the reproduction of its species.
02:32And they say that there are no predators in the area, so they stay there.
02:37And the name.
02:38Yes, the species of rodent.
02:39The name, of course.
02:40The name.
02:41Clearer than possible.
02:42The associations.
02:43They seem very funny to me, because you go down the street in the area and many times they cross the route directly.
02:49Walking.
02:50Poor, they took them out of their habitat.
02:55There is also a problem with foxes in the area of Moreno de Pilar, in the Cáteris.
02:59Well, there you have squirrels too.
03:01There are squirrels.
03:03But there are also foxes, they are also a kind of plague, clearly carried by humans,
03:08because they took them there and now they cannot handle them.
03:11And the squirrels that break all the cables.
03:13Also.
03:14That make you ...
03:15Yes.
03:16We have told you more than once.
03:17Many times, squirrels are calcined in the light poles.
03:20Tremendous.
03:21Because they broke the cables that were electrified.
03:24But they generate cuts.
03:27The squirrels in the entire area, in the entire western area, are ...
03:31Yes, yes, yes, but they are so cute.
03:33Yes, but nobody knows who ...
03:34That's the problem, that someone takes them and then there is a lack of control.
03:40But it is not the case of the ...
03:43It is not the case of the carpinchos.
03:45That was the area.
03:46Of course.
03:48The problem you had is that you started to urbanize areas of them.
03:51That is why there are many associations that are very against this statement that arrived to them on Saturday, surprisingly.
03:57There are no details about how this new measure of anticonceptive vaccines for carpinchos will be applied.
04:06Are you afraid that the species will really begin to disappear?
04:10In reality, it is what they want, basically.
04:12Some.
