Levantamiento de información de los elementos paleontológicos que contribuyan al inventario histórico del cantón Sucre.

Abstract

This study is carried out in three chapters with the purpose of highlighting the relevance of paleontology. We can highlight the discovery of significant fossils, such as the mastodon of the Stegomastodon Waringi species and Cuvieronius Hyodon. It refers to the enormous Pleistocene fauna in Ecuador, which included species such as mastodons and saber-toothed tigers. In addition, the creation of a fossil catalogue is proposed through surveys and conversations, which indicates that 39% of respondents consider the concept of making paleontological routes attractive, which shows that 39% of them consider the concept of making paleontological routes attractive. This highlights the importance of interest in natural history and the relevance of preserving and examining these findings. It could be deduced that the study offers a thorough examination of the paleontological remains in the Sucre canton, showing a poor understanding in the community about these discoveries. Therefore, it is suggested that conservation strategies be created and implemented for the fossils found, ensuring their conservation for future studies.
