The white-winged dove, (Zenaida asiatica) is one of the species that flourishes in this habitat. While the country has a healthy population of resident birds, the numbers greatly increase starting around September, from the migratory birds leaving their winter homes. With Nicaragua consisting of mostly farming communities, you can see this becomes a large problem with millions of dollars lost to crop damage each year.
A study done by the University of Nebraska, with John W. De Grazio, of the US Department of Fish and Wildlife Research, states that white wing doves, cause major crop damage across Nicaragua. In the same report, Mr. De Grazio, said the preferred and proven method to address this problem is Generally, sport hunting and utilization of the birds for food alleviating damage by white-winged and eared doves. Passion has not been an effective way of controlling the population, seeing as how it also affects other species of birds.
So this presents an opportunity for dove hunting outfitters in Nicaragua to be able to offer quality, high volume dove hunting packages for clients from Nicaragua and all over the world. There is no limit on the amount of doves that can be taken, and 95% of the doves that are harvested go to needy families for food. So all in all it’s a win, win for everyone involved.
