1
00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:05.799
At the WU, Colonel' s
report. Well, Daniel got away with

2
00:00:05.839 --> 00:00:13.480
it. Finally you may have a
colonel report that reconciles you a little so

3
00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:19.480
many complaints that we hear report after
report, what is the story of the

4
00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:23.679
doggies. Good morning, July.
While listening, John was afraid because there

5
00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:28.559
is something hanging in the air that
can be good. This is today'

6
00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:34.479
s Colonel report. There are few
affections as authentic as the one that arises

7
00:00:34.560 --> 00:00:39.159
between a person and his pet.
It is indescribable the affection that someone feels

8
00:00:39.200 --> 00:00:42.600
for his dog when, at the
end of the job, perhaps after a

9
00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:48.039
hard day, he encounters the exulting
greeting that, regardless of the difficulties,

10
00:00:48.479 --> 00:00:54.679
celebrates his arrival or the expressions of
affection of the cat that always independent,

11
00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:59.960
makes him feel that he needs it. It is difficult to explain the sensitivity

12
00:01:00.159 --> 00:01:04.000
of animals that are part of families
and know. I don' t know

13
00:01:04.120 --> 00:01:08.640
who the person is who is sad
or sick and who needs more affection.

14
00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:15.400
That day the importance of pets is
increasing for Colombians. A study of the

15
00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:22.000
firm figures and concepts with the University
of the Andes and the Humbold Institute reveals

16
00:01:22.120 --> 00:01:26.879
that since the year two thousand twenty- two most Colombians have pets. The

17
00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:30.560
figure, which had been around for
a long time, rose by two thousand

18
00:01:30.599 --> 00:01:34.560
twenty- two to fifty- six
percent and now stands at fifty- seven

19
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:41.280
percent. The Colombians' favorite pet
is, by far the dog, followed

20
00:01:41.719 --> 00:01:46.519
by the cat and then birds,
rabbits, turtles, rodents and fish.

21
00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:52.480
The study is aimed at responsible possession
of animals, because just as many people

22
00:01:52.519 --> 00:01:57.239
love and care for them, there
are others who abuse them and sometimes abandon

23
00:01:57.359 --> 00:02:01.560
them in the cause field, using
imbalances in ecosystems and endangering native species.

24
00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:09.240
Dogs and cats, who suddenly have
to hunt to survive, become ferocious predators.

25
00:02:12.400 --> 00:02:16.599
It also finds the study of a
worrying tendency to convert exotic animals into

26
00:02:16.599 --> 00:02:22.199
pets, which causes the extraction of
their habitat of birds, wilds, turtles,

27
00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:27.599
mycos, iguanas and frogs. A
very important issue is the coexistence between

28
00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:34.319
neighbors because of the unresponsible possession of
pets. You already know from not picking

29
00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:38.599
up depositions to allowing the pet to
damage other people' s properties or attack

30
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:44.000
other animals or people. To discuss
this topic, we greet this work to

31
00:02:44.199 --> 00:02:49.719
Dr César Caballero of the company Figures
and concepts. Very good morning, Daniel

32
00:02:49.759 --> 00:02:55.759
Lugo, Dr Caballero, why the
interest arose in doing this statistical study on

33
00:02:55.759 --> 00:03:01.719
pet ownership in Colombia. Daniel since
two thousand eleven, without seeing concepts,

34
00:03:01.759 --> 00:03:07.639
has been avoiding this issue, because
we see that it is a social phenomenon

35
00:03:07.759 --> 00:03:12.439
and that it is a topic that
is growing and that I believe will continue

36
00:03:12.479 --> 00:03:15.039
to increase in the following years.
The first time we did the measurement,

37
00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:17.280
thirty- seven percent of households had
a pet and, as you point out,

38
00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:23.560
I' m fifty- seven percent
today have a pet. So that

39
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:28.080
' s a topic that we find
interesting, because it has to do with

40
00:03:28.080 --> 00:03:31.840
the way the Colombian society coexists today, that behaves and will continue to function,

41
00:03:32.360 --> 00:03:38.680
the pandemic will have had to do
with the increase of pets in Colombian

42
00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:46.080
homes. No doubt about us.
But this is accompanied by a demographic phenomenon,

43
00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:50.400
a decline in household size. The
Dani Ya reported that twenty percent of

44
00:03:50.479 --> 00:03:55.159
households in the country are single-
person and that' s where a very

45
00:03:55.199 --> 00:03:59.240
important portion is. He' s
got more stuff, too. But at

46
00:03:59.280 --> 00:04:01.680
the same time that it is a
phenomenon that we feel is very good,

47
00:04:03.240 --> 00:04:06.840
we dated Humbol and the University of
the Andes, because we find that there

48
00:04:06.919 --> 00:04:14.120
are three driving edges that are not
responsible for pets allow them to be summarized

49
00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:20.000
two seconds. One. Today there
are a significant percentage of Colombian households that

50
00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:26.800
have wild animals as pets. There
are two perals, semi- fralls and

51
00:04:27.079 --> 00:04:30.959
street animals, that is, pets
that are loose today and that are not

52
00:04:31.319 --> 00:04:38.439
in control, because they can actually
affect or affect the fauna that the country

53
00:04:38.439 --> 00:04:43.680
has. And three, there are
growing problems of coexistence among neighbors due to

54
00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:47.480
pet issues. So, that'
s why our idea is to make a

55
00:04:47.519 --> 00:04:49.759
conversation so that we still have pets. That is very good for us,

56
00:04:50.279 --> 00:04:56.720
but we should have them more responsibly. Yes, sir, pets, which

57
00:04:56.720 --> 00:05:00.480
bring so much joy to homes,
are also one of the main sources of

58
00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:08.360
conflicts between neighbors, conflicts that often
require police intervention. How so, Dr

59
00:05:08.839 --> 00:05:16.920
Caballero, but we found that the
police director passed us this information. Last

60
00:05:16.920 --> 00:05:21.600
year, the Colombian police had to
make one hundred and thirty zero mediations among

61
00:05:21.600 --> 00:05:26.720
citizens, not all of which were
limited, mostly because of garbage, noise

62
00:05:26.720 --> 00:05:30.240
and pets, and that implies that
they go between two and three policemen to

63
00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:34.360
mediate a situation between two citizens.
Don' t end up comparing, because

64
00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:39.639
that' s on another record and
it takes between two and three hours and

65
00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:44.160
then the police have to report that
activity, which makes a calculation that was

66
00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:47.040
made with the people of the police. He says that last year there was

67
00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:53.759
a job of Colombian police about five
hundred and fifty zero hours dedicated to the

68
00:05:53.839 --> 00:05:59.040
neighbors putting the chain to their dog, they will lower the volume of their

69
00:05:59.519 --> 00:06:02.279
music or collect and miss my poop
from their dog. So let' s

70
00:06:02.279 --> 00:06:05.120
say here' s an alert,
because we' re talking about an epidemic

71
00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:09.399
of coexistence. Forty percent of households
said that in the twenty- three,

72
00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:15.160
they had at least one conflict with
their neighbors over pet issues, which I

73
00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:19.240
think is also a wake- up
call for us to converge in society on

74
00:06:19.519 --> 00:06:27.079
how we control this issue, that
there is no point in distracting police time

75
00:06:27.120 --> 00:06:31.360
on these kinds of issues and that
we would simply behave well and comply with

76
00:06:31.360 --> 00:06:38.000
the rules, we would not have
these kinds of problems. Obviously, we

77
00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:42.920
need police officers, all police officers
and officers to be dedicated to care and

78
00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:47.519
security and not to solving these problems
that could be solved more simply by complying

79
00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:56.160
with the rules of coexistence. Many
people love and care for their pets,

80
00:06:56.639 --> 00:07:02.040
but the problem also arises from the
abandonment of cat dogs. What a consequence

81
00:07:02.079 --> 00:07:06.519
this brings for the cities and for
the countryside one we saw two or three

82
00:07:06.519 --> 00:07:11.319
weeks ago. You know that today
the country is trying to recover, for

83
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:16.800
example, the spectacle bear and that
in Chingaza there are some important specimens,

84
00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:21.120
not in volume Peru, but it
is careful. One of them was found

85
00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:26.240
to have a speck. Moquillo only
transmits it in dogs. There' s

86
00:07:26.319 --> 00:07:31.800
supposed to be no dog around the
park. But, for example, there

87
00:07:31.879 --> 00:07:36.519
are people who have spoken to people
from natural parts and reserves. It is

88
00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:42.199
forbidden to bring pet animals to these
places because they can cause effects. You

89
00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:46.839
don' t know how that infection
got to the bear. That hasn'

90
00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:48.920
t been discovered yet, but that
puts him at risk, and this is

91
00:07:48.920 --> 00:07:53.079
a species at risk. Let'
s say. It has been estimated that

92
00:07:53.079 --> 00:07:59.480
in Colombia last year three million birds
are killed by ceral animals, both in

93
00:07:59.519 --> 00:08:03.000
the cities and in the countryside and
in the natural parks, three million birds.

94
00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:07.879
That is not a small matter and
there is obviously the issue that there

95
00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:13.959
are many people who do not irresponsibly
abandon their pets. Animals. Some remain

96
00:08:13.959 --> 00:08:20.000
in the cities, but others begin
to migrate to the countryside and rural areas.

97
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:24.879
There are farms and homes that coexist
with their pets and leave them loose

98
00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:30.279
and are particularly cats. They are
very skilled hunters, but dogs are also

99
00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:37.919
very abis hunters and are affecting Colombian
wildlife. The case you may remember that

100
00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:41.480
in the beginning this year we saw
the case of ceral dogs that in Chile

101
00:08:41.519 --> 00:08:52.879
attacked some I think were baby seals
and killed them completely. This is happening

102
00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:56.120
today in Colombia and that is why
our call is for people to be responsible

103
00:08:56.159 --> 00:08:58.480
and that, if they don'
t want to have more or mascot,

104
00:08:58.600 --> 00:09:01.759
it will take them to where they
join, the authorities or to a foundation.

105
00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:07.200
But we have to control those animals
and in front of the wildlife Daniel,

106
00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:11.759
just to give him a figure on
the people we interviewed. Four percent

107
00:09:11.799 --> 00:09:16.440
recognized us as having a wild species. That' s because of the size

108
00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:22.000
of the sample we did. They
are about two hundred and forty thousand wild

109
00:09:22.000 --> 00:09:26.679
species. Today of pets, and
that I tell you that from two thousand

110
00:09:26.879 --> 00:09:31.600
eleven twelve is forbidden by law,
it is forbidden to have wild animals.

111
00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:37.039
We' re talking about turtles,
we' re talking about birds, we

112
00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:39.120
' re talking about iguanas, people
have it and everyone recognized us. And

113
00:09:39.159 --> 00:09:46.559
when we asked them if they had
seen someone having a wild pet in their

114
00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:50.080
home, we are already getting very
green that twenty- six percent of him

115
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:56.080
was seen wild bird. That'
s over two million wild birds. For

116
00:09:56.120 --> 00:10:01.240
the information that the partners have shared
with us. In other words, the

117
00:10:01.279 --> 00:10:05.039
shipment traffic in Colombia is not only
to get them out of the country,

118
00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:09.799
but also to take them to homes
that have them as domestic animals. And

119
00:10:09.840 --> 00:10:11.919
that' s forbidden by law and
that' s something we want to draw

120
00:10:11.960 --> 00:10:16.440
attention to. Having wild animals in
the house is not a responsible pet tenience.

121
00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:24.799
Yeah, let' s say.
I believe that no person achieved more

122
00:10:24.919 --> 00:10:31.480
pernicious changes in Colombia' s ecosystems. Considered individually that Pablo Escobar, in

123
00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:35.240
Medellin are seen bands of Amazonian macaws
flying through the area of the village,

124
00:10:35.440 --> 00:10:39.720
by the way, very beautiful birds
and that already are part, therefore,

125
00:10:39.759 --> 00:10:45.440
of the natural landscape and also the
average magdality was filled with Hippopotamos on behalf

126
00:10:45.440 --> 00:10:48.279
of Pablo Escobar. What to do
about this situation. What can be done

127
00:10:48.879 --> 00:10:56.159
to return the ecosystem to what was
or is simply impossible. Not I in

128
00:10:56.240 --> 00:11:00.639
the Alliance, what we have defined
in the first stage, Daniel and We

129
00:11:00.840 --> 00:11:03.480
ask you that I also speak here
in the name of not only hundreds and

130
00:11:03.519 --> 00:11:05.879
concepts, but also of the Alliance. A first stage is come, let

131
00:11:05.879 --> 00:11:11.080
' s talk, let' s
increase public conversation on this topic. We

132
00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:16.480
are going, we are discussing proposals
internally for what to do, but we

133
00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:18.440
do not agree that the issue of
not being easy is not an easy one,

134
00:11:18.799 --> 00:11:24.000
and at an early stage we said
come. We' re going to

135
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:28.559
make a first, a wake-
up call with data, with evidence to

136
00:11:28.559 --> 00:11:33.840
tell hive society we have a responsible
pet tenure problem. The case then I

137
00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:37.960
would not like at this moment to
go ahead and say that this is a

138
00:11:37.960 --> 00:11:43.639
difficult, difficult issue and we are
three parts and we are saying, we

139
00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:50.159
have initially agreed to try to encourage
the conversation and that we are all aware

140
00:11:50.279 --> 00:11:56.080
that this issue needs our full attention
and that it is possible to live responsibly

141
00:11:56.559 --> 00:12:01.399
with pets and have them responsibly,
but we need help from all the citizens

142
00:12:01.679 --> 00:12:03.399
and to be aware that there are
practices that are wrong. It is wrong

143
00:12:03.440 --> 00:12:09.919
to have wild animals as pets,
it is wrong to abandon dogs and cats

144
00:12:09.960 --> 00:12:13.679
both on the street and in parks, and it is wrong not to comply

145
00:12:13.759 --> 00:12:18.679
with the rules that have the Code
of coexistence and publicity that Colombia has and

146
00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:22.600
that involve two three things. Daniel, all dogs at all times must have

147
00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:28.320
a criadilla or a chain. The
law orders that, but go and tell

148
00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:33.039
the owner of a pet to please
put the chain on his dog. This

149
00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:37.279
becomes a conflict quickly that can escalate
into more serious things and where the police

150
00:12:37.320 --> 00:12:41.360
have come, has had to intervene. Go tell you the owner of a

151
00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:46.200
pet to pick up the poop that
just made your pet. They put on

152
00:12:46.240 --> 00:12:50.279
without hergumenos, they get very aggressive
and that is what is ending in very

153
00:12:50.519 --> 00:12:54.080
big conflicts. The other theme is
the theme of restaurants. The law says

154
00:12:54.240 --> 00:12:58.759
that a dog cannot enter a restaurant
when the restaurant has open kitchen or when

155
00:12:58.240 --> 00:13:05.519
it does not have a specific area
for pets. Public health issues. But

156
00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:07.399
you go to the country' s
shopping malls and you' re going to

157
00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:11.519
realize that in the food areas that
are all open kitchens, pets come in

158
00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:16.840
and put the work at risk,
owners put at risk the work of thousands

159
00:13:16.879 --> 00:13:18.039
of people because one day you'
re going to get to the secretariat of

160
00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:24.639
greetings to close all those kitchens because
they are open kitchens and unless they have

161
00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:28.080
a different preparation and space, because
pets shouldn' t be there. Called

162
00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:31.720
the call of the alliance is a
plasmos the minimum that the law says to

163
00:13:31.720 --> 00:13:35.279
wear dogs with chain. Cats must
not leave their home without any control.

164
00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:41.519
This is less common in some cases. You have to pick up the pophorus

165
00:13:41.639 --> 00:13:46.000
of pets and do not take them
to restaurants that do not have adequate spaces

166
00:13:46.039 --> 00:13:50.799
for pets to be there. We
may have a responsible convenience, but at

167
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:54.200
this moment forty percent of households did
not report that they did not and are

168
00:13:54.279 --> 00:14:01.480
becoming an epidemic of coexistence in Colombian
society. Well, thank you very much

169
00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:07.080
to Dr César Caballero of Figures and
Concepts for sharing this interesting study with us.

170
00:14:07.200 --> 00:14:09.440
You can see it complete from this
hour on. On the LEU page

171
00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:15.480
there is a Borus track. Remember
that today, starting at two o'

172
00:14:15.480 --> 00:14:20.000
clock in the afternoon, the General
Assembly of Shareholders of co- oil will

173
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:24.320
be held in the Corferias compound in
Bogotá. From her she paints as the

174
00:14:24.360 --> 00:14:28.759
most agitated in history. Several small
shareholders, among them selector Jorge Enrique Robledo,

175
00:14:30.240 --> 00:14:33.639
want to ask for the floor to
draw attention to what they consider an

176
00:14:33.679 --> 00:14:39.120
undesirable change of course of the most
important company in Colombia. All this happens

177
00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:46.000
in the midst of a relay of
board of directors whose members were not presented

178
00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:52.399
with the anticipation of life and also
with the reform of the statutes of copetrol.

179
00:14:52.840 --> 00:14:54.120
This was today' s Colonel report. Thank you very much.
