Overview
- An overnight operation began in the Silvestre area with police, civil defense and private security present, and residents reported restricted access and capture equipment on site.
- Judge María Paula Venere authorized a narrowly scoped move that bars relocating pregnant or nursing females and contemplates transferring twelve males.
- Animal-protection groups and residents kept a vigil and contend the transfer violates a San Martín chamber’s precautionary measure; a lawyer for Callejero Casa signaled plans for a criminal complaint for disobedience.
- Nordelta’s neighborhood association describes the effort as a pilot to reduce road risk and pair relocation with temporary fertility control, with organizers naming a private reserve in San Fernando/Tigre as the destination.
- Opponents argue Nordelta has not installed basic mitigation such as fauna crossings, ramps and traffic calming, warning the operation could harm both the animals and the wetland ecosystem.
