Description:	All the hunters reported that they had to travel long distances (1060 km) to find game, including caiman. This, coupled to the many cases of hunting recorded in the short period of time we surveyed these areas, suggests that the vicinity of settlements is over-hunted which explains the low densities found in this study.
