Community-based wildlife management through sustainable use has been widely promoted in the past few decades as an appropriate strategy to link community aims with wildlife conservation. In the case of the vicuÃ±a, Vicugna vicugna, a wild camelid found in the high Andean region, conservation policies have shifted away from strict protection to allowing sustainable use by Andean communities. The general argument behind this move is that the generation and distribution of benefits derived from the commercial use of fibre at the community-level is likely to encourage local conservation of the vicuÃ±a. In Bolivia, the state grants custodianship and exclusive use rights to local communities. The unit of custodianship and use is the âcommunal management areaâ that is within the control of one or more communities. This paper analyses the key factors affecting community involvement in vicuÃ±a capture and shearing events, based on data collected in San Andres de Machaqa (Province of Ingavi, Department of La Paz). The analysis focused on the first period of implementation of the programme (1997-2002) in the absence of commercialisation of fibre. The paper identifies two groups of factors affecting communities involvement: those related to size and boundaries of communal management areas; and those related to the internal dynamics of local communities.
