Thin blankets of mist float over the water, casting a mystical veil over the vast emptiness. The eye wanders over the scene. Green curtains of vegetation, a mixture of lianas, branches and leaves of giant grasses and palm trees, enter the image. Mirror images along the shorelines frame the scene and create a surreal setting for the lead actors.

Suddenly, there they are: the main actors of the matinee have begun their performance. Slender, dark brown bodies catapult out of the green water like dolohins, disappearing a second later.

Less than fifty years ago the man began to rewrite this play as a tragedy.

The thin, short-haired coat of this predatory fish began to become a sign of wealth and luxury in the distant industrial centers of North America and Western Europe, elegant clothing and high society. Monthly, even yearly, wages were involved when giant otter pelts were traded. Between 1946 and 1971, a total of 24,282 skins were exported from Peru alone. The final act had begun and one of the most magnificent
