These areas have been established in order to make a good use of the wild fauna through the regulated practice of hunting.
There are two regulated hunting areas in the country, with a surface of 124,735 has. Both of them represent only 0,1% of the national territory.

THE HUNTING AREA OF THE ANGOLO
This hunting area was settled as such on July 1, 1975, through Law (R.S.) N 0264-75-AG. On March of 1977, the UNESCO declared it part of the Reserve of the Northwest Biosphere, together with the National Park of Cerros de Amotape and the National Park of Tumbes (currently, the reserved area of Tumbes). It is located in the department of Piura, provinces of Sullana and Talara, and it has a surface of 65,000 has.
Init we find bushes and trees such as the Angolo (Pithe cellobium multiflorum), the Ceibo (Bombax sp.) the frejolillo or parotillo (Erythrina sp.), the hualtaco (Coxopterygium huasango) and the almond tree (Geoffraya striata).
The area has 17 types of mammals, 150 of birds, 13 of reptiles and 10 of fishes, for example: the puma (Puma concolor), the gray deer (Odocoileus virginianus), the squirrel (Sciurus stramineus), the partridge (Nothoprocta pentlandii), the guarahuau (Phalcoboenus albogularis), the owl (Athene cunicularia), the parrot (Aratinga erythrogenys), the lizard (Iguana iguana), the colambo (Drymarch oncoralis), the macanche (Boa constrictor ortonii) and, to end the sample list, the sancarrana (Bothros sp.). The sole objective of this area is to preserve the dry forest, the wild fauna and international tourism.
