Abstract
Sustainable Development term was born in 1987 and referred to the satisfaction of human needs while preserving the planet resources. There are different interpretations of this definition, but generally, all agree that a Sustainable Development model must be economically viable, socially acceptable and environmentally benign. This manuscript proposes strategies from a zoo technical approach and their contribution to the path for Sustainable Development in Peru. In Peru, a sustainable zoo technical vision will be made up of a conscious and responsible society, promoting a rational small-scale production, understanding the existing relationships between animals, plants, soil, air and water, for a comprehensive and peaceful human nature intervention. For this, the livestock activity will have to review and readjust its foundations for good professional and scientific exercise. It is necessary to avoid the deterioration of virgin regions to install new productive systems instead of implementing techniques that imitate the patterns and relationships in nature, such as permaculture. Finally, a Sustainable Development model should not focus only on accumulating financial benefits because this will quickly lead us to social and environmental poverty.
