ANIMAL SPECIES DECLARED NATURAL MONUMENTS Southern Andean Deer - Huemul A medium sized deer native to Andean Patagonia. Its trusting nature and uncontrolled hunting have brought it to the verge of extinction. Declared a Natural Monument in 1996.

Every year it arrives in Patagonia's bays to calve and breed in increasing numbers. Declared a Natural Monument in 1984. Northern Andean Deer - Taruca A stocky deer from the high mountain pastures of NW Argentina. Its populations are isolated on scattered high mountain peaks, which are unprotected.

Declared a Natural Monument in 2001. Areas protected in order to preserve their ecological systems. It may also happen that a Reserve becomes a protected area of a neighboring National Park, that is an independent conservation area that does not meet all the necessary requirements to become a National Park.
