Conservation
Conservation Status
Chilean Tinamou is widespread and has a very large geographic range. The population is greatly reduced, especially in the northern part of its range, it is commoner in the southern part of its range. This species also is common on Easter Island (Isla de Pascua), where it was introduced in the late 19th century (Marín and Cáceres 2010). The IUCN Red List conservation status of Chilean Tinamou is Least Concern (Birdlife International 2014).
Effects of human activity on populations
Populations of Chilean Tinamou, especially in the northern part of its range, have declined greatly, apparently primarily due to pressure from hunting and trapping (Johnson 1965, Cabot 1992, BirdLife International 2014). Chilean Tinamou also sometimes is killed accidentally by farm machinery (Skewes et al. 2006).
